Great lunch at Lupa--Batali's Roman Osteria on Thompson Street. Some might argue that the old Lupa was better and the place has become tired; but Lupa is still a favorite spot for many New Yorkers. I went for lunch with Matt who used to work there; so they hooked us up big time. The bartender poured some bubbly and the food followed.
Our antipasti:
Sweetbreads with shishito peppers
Beets and pistacios
Marinated mushrooms and farro
Our Primi
Ricotta gnocchi with sausage and fennel
Bucatini all' Amatriciana
All delicious! Definitely worth checking out. I think lunch is a good time to go because you miss the crowds. Also always a good backup plan when you cant get into Ushiwakamuri, Miss Lillys, or the Dutch. Check it out!
