More About

"Kosher" and "world-class wines" are used in the same sentence about as often as "United States" and "World Cup winner." There is nothing about the house wine, a $5.25 glass of Herzog Merlot with mild Manischewitz-like tang, that will change this.

Desserts include a shallow serving of crème brélée in a deep dish, the caramelized sugar crust not crunchy enough, but the custard comfortably warm and redolent of vanilla scent. Tiramisu was an especially creamy version, and very good. Chocolatissimo, another name for the ubiquitous dome of bittersweet chocolate with molten center, is a dessert that always seems to deliver a smile to chocoholics. Cine Cittá Caffé will have a similarly cheery effect on vegetarians, those who keep kosher, and anybody who appreciates fresh, honest food in clean, contemporary surroundings.
