Cafe CondesaBy Salli Vates Aug 15, 2006A few months ago, I visited tiny, eight-table Cafe Condesa, which had just opened. I was amazed at how low the prices were (entrees were in the $8-$12 range) for such high-quality food. Now, Cafe Condesa has been "discovered" - reviews are starting to plaster the window, and it's much harder to secure a little black wooden table - but the prices and food haven't changed at all. FULL REVIEWMy Dinner At Café CondesaBy The Strong Buzz Jul 16, 2006I’m going to venture a guess here that many of you live in small New York City apartments with tiny kitchens. I am one of those people too. I love my little studio, but it is on the, shall we say, tiny side of small. Anyway, if you have such a small pad, I want you to close your eyes for a moment and imagine turning your cozy little apartment into a restaurant. Imagine cleaning up the raw wood beams, polishing the floors a deep walnut, hanging spare art on the exposed brick walls, and bare amber bulbs from long lean wires. In your reverie, set up about six tables and scan some of your favorite recipe books for some simple dishes from your repertoire to serve for breakfast (croissants, eggs any style), lunch (croque monsieur, a cemita (a big fat sandwich) stuffed with pork, ham, cheese, avocado, tomatoes, and chipotle pepper mayo), and dinner (roasted halibut with asparagus and fingerling potatoes, poached chicken breast with wild rice, chicken confit and brussel sprouts). You imagine you’ll charge reasonable prices for simple plates that are easy to put up, but make a mark with bold clean flavors, and you invite some friends in to help you run the place. FULL REVIEW
