Description

In doing so, they put to shame the city's barbecues-and maybe the porn industry, too-with their clever deployment of wood.

    August in July

    By Robert Sietsema | Tue, August 10, 2004

    The menu reads like a greatest hits of European peasant fare—the kind of salty, greasy, garlicky food you remember from your Spanish or Italian vacation. Meanwhile, the business card establishes a medieval theme, featuring an antique woodcut of a ... More »
