Former Le Cirque pastry chef, Iacopo Falai offers cusine that reflects Falai's roots in Florence and is all prepared "fatto in casa," on the premises. The bread is arguably "the best in the city" Falai is already one of the best Italian restaurants in New York, and is not to be missed. New York Times reviewer Frank Bruni wrote in his review that " Falai makes it look easy."Signature dishes include Gamberoni which are fresh shrimps wrapped in pancetta with chick pea cream. The Maiale- pork filet with fennel seeds, cocoa nibs & potatoes puree is superb and hearty. In 2005, Falai opened a bakery across the street which was voted " best bakery" by New York magazine. Now those incredible breads can be bought for your enjoyment at home
