Description

Forget about the phallic sprig of rosemary that garnishes so many of Gotham's dishes; at Cornelia Street Cafe; the food is notable for its taste;not for looking as though it's been fussed over by 1000 tiny elfin hands;and the boudin blanc's the best. Densely toothsome with just a hint of fennel, it goes perfectly with the accompanying slaw of thick strips of red cabbage and a cranberry-apple crisp that continues the sweet-tart theme. There's also a performance cabaret in the nether regions of this spot, dubbed a culinary and cultural landmark by mayoral proclamation in 1987.

    Mary Halvorson Quintet

    | Wed, May 09, 2012

    The trumpet and sax of the guitarist’s quintet add extra textures to an already rich sound. In the last four years Halvorsons’s trio has become known for its naturally kaleidoscopic feel, and the horns find a way to underscore the music’s yen for ... More »

    John McNeil's Urban Legend

    | Wed, May 02, 2012

    The trumpeter-bandleader calls this outfit "accessible but not dumb." Few things McNeil does are: He's a wily composer who loves to script a series of zig-zags into his music so that nothing ever gets too predictable. Melodies come easy to him, an... More »

    Tomas Fujiwara and the Hook Up

    | Wed, April 11, 2012

    A cagey wobble between design and abstraction makes the new The Air Is Different utterly enchanting. Or maybe wobble is the wrong word: Drummer Fujiwara injects these pieces with authority, such that their outside excursions move with a determined... More »

    | Wed, March 28, 2012

    Doing their job under some of the most memorable jazz melodies being written, Allison’s rhythms glow with a rock-tinged heat. Across his work, the bassist employs pulse in masterful ways, sometimes using it to turn a dime, other times to buoy a be... More »

    | Wed, March 21, 2012

    Marty Ehrlich has a gorgeous record entitledPliant Plaint, and that title could be used to describe the elasticity at the core of Open Loose’s bend-n-stretch trio dynamics. On the new Explicit, things seem more lyrical than ever: The bass/drums/te... More »

    Some great programming here, just be aware that the space is small, narrow, so make reservations ahead of time, and get there early, so you're not too close or too far from the stage. But, always great sound and low-key vibe.
