Overheard on the New York Boards

"I was passing my favorite restaurant, Crispo, and noticed people sitting in the cafe eating what looked like some sort of vegetable frittata and my favorite, their spaghetti carbonara with a poached egg on top. I went inside and found out they just opened for brunch and didn't advertise because they're just testing the waters. Well, I'm ready to jump in the water, especially if I can get a seat in the garden." – faylow11

"We were delighted to find that they have started serving lunch from Tuesday on (closed Monday). This talented chef has created a few new dishes for lunch at great prices. I had a superb bowtie pasta with salmon, broccoli, and capers in a light tomato sauce ($7). My husband had the corvina (from the dinner menu) with yucca sauce ($8). Both were delicious and freshly prepared." – phylrose on Malagueta

"Mark Ladner loves lamb, and it shows—the lamb dishes are always fantastic, especially if you like lamb bold and gamey as I do—he doesn't hide from the gaminess, he embraces it. Lamb rack comes with an intensely reduced puttanesca, shot through with shreds of tail meat. Very rustic and seemingly simple, but one of the best lamb racks I've ever had." – sgordon on Del Posto
