The choice of entrees includes a roasted bistro filet with charred spring onion, green pea falafel, roasted carrot, and a spiced yogurt (you can bump up to a five-ounce beef tenderloin for a $12 add-on); a Coho salmon with fava beans, green garbanzo, toasted rye, and a bagna cauda vinaigrette; or ricotta gnudi with stinging nettle pistou, walnuts, and pecorino.
