Saxon + Parole, the restaurant from design firm AvroKO that replaces their earlier effort at Bleecker Street and the Bowery, Double Crown, is open as of tonight. Check out the interior shots posted by Eater, and the menu on the restaurant’s Website. For what it’s worth, a letter to friends and family – intercepted by The Local – brags that “early tastings have garnered glowing praises for dishes like the Portabello mushroom mousse pots with whiskey & truffle jelly (DO NOT MISS THESE), and ‘the best we’ve ever had’ Berkshire pork chops topped with a touch of quince and apple sauce.” The cocktail and dessert menus are not yet on S+P’s site, but you can see them below.
