Buvette, West Village New York
June 23rd, 2011. Posted by Neil
Buvette is a great neighbourhood hang on Grove, near Bleeker. Mario told us about it and joined us for a great lunch, and we are so glad he did.
The bar staff serve the food so it is a little like French tapas I guess. They have a great small wine list and the staff are really fantastic.
The braised artichokes and asparagus were great, as were the octopus, Lyonnaise salad and the Bayonne ham. Just add bread for the most wonderful, quick lunch.
They have a room for ten which you can book; you get the starters we had, the roast chicken, potato dauphines and salad, and finish with an apple tart… what a fab dinner that would be. We also love the Buvette website, you really get a sense of their passion for good food and service, something which is close to my heart as well.
Bayonne Ham ready to go on the slicer.. nothing beats freshly sliced meats.
Beautiful fresh asparagus, tasted as good as it looks
Lyonnaise salad – a classic
