nesting instinct
Just like London's chic family supper clubs, taking your tots out while you socialize is the whole point of the new Little Nest restaurant.
It caters to kids with its cool retro theme and custom play kitchen that will occupy them for hours. Better yet, it services parents with fabulous organic food and desserts from a former Lumière pastry chef.
There are fun retro-choices like Alphabet Soup and boiled eggs with soldiers, and grown up frittatas with bib lettuce salad to be enjoyed around an ice blue communal table amid big windows and hardwood floors.
Oh yes, and the kids. Now where are they again?
No reservations. Hint: go before 11 a.m. to enjoy some calm before the storm.
