Eating out: Little Giant

Our friend Andrew recommended that we try this place called Little Giant, a few blocks south into the Lower East Side from our apartment. The website promises seasonal, organic, locally sourced food, and dinner last night definitely delivered. The chive biscuits with honey butter were the star of the table, but our favorite dish was a little more inventive: ramps and orecchiette with morels, pancetta, and a poached egg. The scallops were perfectly seared, the dandelion greens salad warm with its prosciutto vinaigrette and peppers, and the cocktails creative and smoothly intoxicating.

We will definitely be heading back there sometime.
