232 Eighth Avenue
(between 21st and 22nd Streets)
As promised, I did return one night (right before closing)
to try their signature Ceci e Pepe dish.
And it did live up to the hype. Delicious!!!
For $24 it’s a rather small serving. But the noodles tasted
like it was homemade and I am amazed that the chef somehow made the chickpeas
taste like creamy parmesan cheese?!? (The footnotes on the menu insist that the
dish does not include any cheese and instead come from the chickpea hozon.) And
the black pepper was a perfect accent.
I paired it with their house wine ($10), which had a
sparkling, citrusy taste. Might pair it with a beer next time.
Would definitely return for the ceci e pepe dish alone!
