Sestina Pasta Bar 🍝
Matthew Kenney Domination

I’ve been blogging about Matthew Kenney restaurants for 12 years. A testament to the quality of his eatery’s food and the ever-growing popularity of vegan food, he now has more than 40 restaurants in 8 countries. My next report is on his newest NYC-based eatery, Sestina Pasta Bar. This is part two of a birthday treat…

Heirloom Salad–housemade mozzarella, tomatoes, balsamic

Housemade gnocchi in a walnut cream sauce, sage and pumpkin seed parmesan. Divine simplicity. And everything made from scratch.

Herbed goat cheese tortelloni in a rosé cream. Beautiful color scheme, but I was more into the gnocchi. Guess I’m not a vegan goat cheese fan…

The Zeppole was one of the best desserts I’ve had in a while. The deep-fried dough was piping hot and pillowy with a heavenly hazelnut chocolate dipping sauce. Ok, ok–it helped that it came out with a candle and I got sung to…

I highly recommend your visiting Sestina at least for dessert. The Zeppole is a must-have.

Being embarrassed. . .

Next up… Sutra. My goodness, look at that menu.
