snackspot: spuntini al bar at del posto

If you’ve been following my Del Posto menu roll-out, you may have thought the dolce posting was my last – but you would be wrong. This is the final menu, Spuntini al Bar. It’s offered only at the tables in the lounge, but don’t think you can just walk-in and sit down, first-come-first-served because even lounge tables require a reservation. (Del Posto reservations: 212.497.8090)

For those of you just tuning in now, you can catch up on all the courses you missed: antipasti, primi & risotti, secondi & per il tavolo, tasting menus and dolci.
