Leisurely lunches aren’t particularly voguish in a parched economy, but Del Posto’s new three-course prix fixe (Wed–Fri 11:30am–2:30pm) could be worthy of nixing your noontime brown bag. Just $29 buys an antipasto, either a pasta or meat course, and a dessert from the seasonal menu, which currently includes options like roasted autumn vegetables with Robiola and truffled hazelnuts and grilled lobster with gnocchetti.
The new lunch deal also coincides with the removal of the more casual, “enoteca” portion of the restaurant, which will be converted to the sumptuous style of the rest of the space by the second week of December. Says the ponytailed maestro himself to the Feed, “We’re going to get our second Michelin star and a four-star New York Times review this year, and this is how we’re going to do it.”—M.
