A quick pre-theater supper on my own tonight: at the bar at Casellula near 9th Avenue. I’ve been before and loved it. This trip is no different. The asparagus dish is especially impressive. Its served with a hollandaise-y but more hard boiled-y egg garnish, rhubarb vinaigrette and hazelnuts. Brilliant!
The shrimp tacos were also nice. Served with avocado salsa verde and black bean puree.
I took this photo because I like both lighting fixtures very much.
And here’s a look at the crowd.
The play tonight, by the way, was The Columnist with John Lithgow. Very good!
Casellula, 401 W. 52nd near 9th. 212-247-8137.
