Description
The open kitchen at Peasant is straight out of a fairy talea magical brick workshop where chef-owner Frank DeCarlo presides over a crackling fire. You can barely read the all-Italian menu in the dim, candlelit dining room, which is just as well: The waitstaff provides each table with detailed recommendations, while delivering gratis Sullivan Street bread, fresh ricotta and olive oil from DiPalos. Fittingly, rustic dishes are best: Choose shimmery sardines; sizzling, golden-skinned hen; or pleasantly mineral suckling pig liver, all pulled from the wood-burning oven.
