snackwire.nyc: meet fabio for lunch

I have a feeling that reservations at Fiamma are going to be harder to get now. Good thing Fabio Trabocchi starts serving lunch next week on December 3rd. But it's a little bit of a tease, pre-fixe menu for one month only. Start dialing now. Full press release after the jump.

For A Limited Time Only:
