Tarry Lodge

I have good news if you live in Westchester and you are a person who eats (which is, sadly, not actually required to sustain life in either Westchester or Orange County, California any longer).
This tiniest of notes appeared in the New York Times Dining Section recently:

TARRY LODGE Joseph Bastianich and Mario Batali have taken over this place and will reopen it in September as a pizzeria-trattoria: 18 Mill Street, Port Chester, N.Y., (914) 939-3111.

That was the entirety of the mention but it should have been a fifteen page dissertation on why that is such ticklishly good news that those two talented gentlemen are desperately needed on the scene in Westchester: Because we are hungry and there are far too few places worth the wait.

Some of the best real Italian you'll ever eat, (and on your way home from work, Kins).
