One of the bright spots punctuating our bleak February is anticipation for the opening of Gilt Bar, which we reported last week will open on the 16th. We were a tidge skeptical of Chef Brendan Sodikoff’s promise of a low-key, tavern-style restaurant experience taking over the formely luxe Aigre Doux space, but the menu speaks for itself: pork meatballs with blood orange mostarda, roasted bone marrow with red onion jam, a croque madame made with salt pork, an intriguing pork liver and foie gras toast, and a pasta dish called “the purist”: noodles adorned with little more than cracked pepper, parmesan, and pecorino. Sodikoff will be releasing the whole menu soon — stay tuned!
