Fall Brings NYC A Few New Brunch, Lunch And Dinner Options

Some people may still think of 'Wichcraft as just a lunch spot, albeit a kick-ass one helmed by Tom Colicchio. But the Flatiron restaurant started doing dinner service in April, and they just launched their fall menu this week. There's nary a 'wich in sight! The small-plates selection begins with "grilled bread" bites like the outstanding Gruyère, roasted onion & olives with marinated anchovies; then there's the genre-blending Charred eggplant, goat cheese, and honey. Other inventive and tasty items include the Shaved brussels sprouts with pine nuts and currants, and the succulent Baked Arctic Char with celery root and pomegranate. At night, the upstairs dining space is surprisingly inviting, and there's a full wine and craft brew menu to accompany the eats.
