| | | | | | Eater Pool/Food_in_Mouth It's been awhile since we've seen any action on the teary signage front, but today we find solace in the somewhat weepy sign at the shuttered Cocotte in Park Slope. The French restaurant, while marginal on the grander scheme of New York dining, did seem to have a faithful... Read More | | | | | | 1) Work on the former Cocotte, which is slated to become an Italian restaurant, is well underway (above). The sign that was in the window proclaiming it an Italian place, however, is gone. 2) Slightly up the block, a new wine store will be opening up. Our strong powers of deduction told us this bas...

It’s perched directly above some exposed outdoor train tracks — but th... Read More | | | | | | I'd been to Artisanal, the cheese-oriented restaurant on Park between 32nd and 33rd once before for dinner. Then I had gougeres (small balls of bread stuffed with cheese), and a pasta dish, both of which had been good but relatively forgettable. Recently I decided to try Artisanal out for brunch an...

Hot on the heels of the opening of (the utterly wretched) Aperitivo, comes word that the space that used to be Cocotte on Fifth Avenue is going Italian. Per a post on Brooklynian Walked by the old Cocotte space today and spoke to the owne... Read More | | | | | | If one had to select a couple of cuisines that Park Slope doesn’t need more of, one would be Japanese and the other would be Italian. Yet, here we are. This is Primo Atto, which is now open in the space formerly occupied by Cocotte. The menu looks interesting. It is a block from Villa Rustica, whi...

Five stocks to be exact: chicken stock, fish stock, vegetable stock, beef stock with burnt onions, and brown veal stock. It was the first day we actually had to copy down our recipes the night before... Read More | | | | | | It's been about a month and a half since I decided to give up beef, and since it feels right for many reasons, I'm sticking to it. Next up on the Abstain Project: waste. I thought about this one morning before work when I ordered an omelet from dreadful Europa Cafe. I specified no bread, but they... Read More | | | | | | Let's All Pray For the End of Bourgeois Dining Experience It was a time of celebration for the Plotnicki family as my twin sons turned 21 a week ago Sunday. To note the occasion, I booked a table at the Louis XV in Monte Carlo. I hadn't been at the restaurant since the late 1980's, and I have to sa...
