Forninos will be good...will it?


I will it. Because it may be a transplant from williamsburg but its roots are in the same locale (5ave and Garfield in the slope) when it was Cucina and we miss Tempo and the grilled pizzas are good and the nervous staff will calm down and maybe the music and noise will improve and the little vegi plates and fetched-tapas--apperteasers are nicely arrayed on a multi platformed pedestal centerpiece and and the grilled pizzas are good...oh I said that.

The Colors of Empowerment



I love Colors on Lafayette below Astor place formed by non profits and survivors of Windows on The World post 9/11. Many recipes reflect the cuisines of the original staff. Not clear on their latest schedule .. But they do sometimes have a blue grass band and sometimes flamengo guitar and a great bartender who makes something like pisco sours. My NYU Community Empowerment students celebrated
their semester's end there.
