To be fair, he's not the only one to refer to it as an Italian restaurant, but it really wasn't. Quote FARO is a neighborhood restaurant in Brooklyn, NY that opened in May 2015. Our focus is on handmade pasta using local grains, and utilizing NY farms and farmers to create delectable, seasonal American dishes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sneakeater Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Really? I think it totally was. The non-pasta main dishes certainly seemed to skew Italian to me. I think you think it wasn't Italian only because you liked it. Have you been to Italy? I think you might like actual Italian food more than you think you do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sneakeater Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I mean, that Tuscan grilled quail I made last week: I can't imagine your not loving that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilfrid Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 Appetizers: beef tartare, English pea soup, Gem lettuce salad. Entrees: Dry aged duck breast, New York strip, cod with leeks. The pasta bears the Italian names for the shapes, but with one or two exceptions did not have garnishes that any Italian restaurant would serve. I've been to Italy a number of times and my all-time favorite New York restaurant was San Domenico. What I don't ever crave is Italian-American red sauce cooking.
