Saint-Ex and Masala Art Play With Prix Fixe, Plus More Intel

Switching Things Up

Cafe Saint-Ex has introduced a three-course “chef’s pick” menu available Thursday through Sunday during dinner service. The pre-set program includes choice of starter (shaved apple-bacon salad with blue cheese dressing or butternut squash soup), entree (steak frites or pork chop with potatoes, boy choy and apple relish) and dessert. Each order ($45 per person) also includes a glass of sparkling wine.

Decisions, Decisions

Masala Art is celebrating Chinese New Year all month long with a pair of three-course offerings. The vegetarian program ($24) features spring rolls, honey-chili potatoes and fried vegetables. The meatier option ($27) includes mango chicken, Sriracha-honey fish and Manchurian lamb. Fried rice and garlic naan serve as sides for both, followed by banana fritters with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

Flay Pushes ‘Shrooms
