| Chef Sam De Marco goes global at Fireside, a checkered-tabletop dining room with fireplaces. British Manor House accents like chandeliers and moldings are merged with New-Age, bright-red Chesterfield sofas and polka-dotted chairs, resulting in a fashionable restaurant serving a “Cocktail Cuisine.” It is hard to get past the “Conversation Pieces” section of the efficient menu. Feisty, tomatillo short ribs, spirited mojito lamb chops and sassy lady apples carrying foie gras ammo guarantee you don’t need an invitation to indulge in party food. Escargot profiteroles and wild boar Bolognese strozzapreti sound adventurous, but lack fire. While the patinas of gold and silver applaud the kitchen’s effort, toasting with a hibiscus sidecar and an elderflower collins is not a bad idea. After all, Fireside reminds you of a hotheaded teenager trying to be classy. |
