Quick Bites: Centro Vinoteca

September 16th, 2009

The Basics: There’s a lot to be excited about at Centro Vinoteca, aside from the great people-watching along downtown 7th Avenue. Neat leather banquettes and zenlike brown and white tones setup a serious affair though the friendly service and a lively crowd keep things down-to-earth. But Centro is better than your run-of-the-mill cheese and charcuterie Italian. Try thoughtful dishes like english pea ravioli with parmigiano broth and black truffles or potato-wrapped striped bass with morels. The chef is Top chef alum, Leah Cohen, famous for smooching the champion Hosea Rosenberg.

*Update, just received word that Leah Cohen is leaving Centro Vinoteca  (9/18/2009)
