A Little Italy for Lunch
|

JANUARY 7TH, 2011
The first week back at work in the new year is always the most trying, which is why you reward yourself with pasta.
 The new Q4 al Centro,
downtown sister resto to Q4 Ristorante in Kitsilano, is the place to
collect your prize for slipping into professional pumps again. Whine
about working with a glass of the same and twirl your fork into the
fresh clams, herbs and pepperoncino of Linguine alle Vongole ($18) or a
perfect panini ($12-$14). In the cozy, contemporary 70-seat space, an
original work by Jason Gogo commands attention and encourages you to
use wine in your work (he used Napa Valley grapes in the red paint).
It’s a personally-sanctioned Italian siesta.
