1) Faccia Brutta, a new coastal Italian restaurant from chefs and restaurateurs Ken Oringer and Jamie Bissonnette, opened earlier this week for dinner service. This restaurant "focuses on seasonal dishes highlighting the diverse cuisine of the coastal Italian region, drawing inspiration from their travels across Liguria, Sicily, Sardinia, and more." It will serve seasonal cuisine with locally sourced ingredients featuring snacks, crudos, housemade pastas (with gluten-free options cooked in a separate kitchen) and more.
Menu highlights include:
Grilled Octopus with black rice, guanciale and fava beans
Live Scallop served in the shell with lardo, crunchy endive and black truffle vinaigrette
Squid Ink Trottole with Maine uni, melted leeks and Calabrian chili
Pansotti, a half moon ravioli typical in Liguria with swiss chard, ricotta, walnuts, brown butter and fiddleheads
Orecchiette Baresi with inspiration from Puglia featuring an beef gravy with nduja, tomatoes
Christmas Style Branzino, a whole fish butterflied with one side cooked with salsa verde and the other with pesto trapanese
Grilled Lobster with Calabrian chili butter, fregola and clam vinaigrette
Their beverage program includes cocktails such as 1794 (Capari, rye, sweet vermouth, chocolate mole bitters and an orange twist), a fun twist on the Negroni; a selection of Spritzes, and more. The wine list focuses on approachable wines from the coastal Italian area, as well as selections from around the world, all sourced from smaller organic producers.
