Description:
This "farmhouse" is in the West Village, and though there are nods to the rustic in the decor, there is also an atmosphere of sophistication. A glass-enclosed wine cellar is visible from the small dining room, the restaurant stays open late, and you'll find hipsters as well as folks in power suits. The dishes are innovative and the ingredients are fresh, many supplied by upstate New York farms. The tender, perfectly prepared braised pork belly is served with polenta and a stew of escargot and lima beans; the duck breast melds magically with apple puree, sautéed Brussels sprouts, and chestnuts; and the trout Piscator, rainbow trout, is stuffed with watercress and smoked trout and topped with a tangy apple-and-horseradish dressing. Service is low-key but attentive; and the seating, though somewhat cramped, is not enough to dim the romantic aura.
