Kosher Restaurant on Atlantic


Pardes, at 497 Atlantic Avenue, has been opened for about several months now and, in the restaurant world, that's not exactly new. We have yet to get over there, though, and would love any input from anyone who'd like to share their experience.

According to Wikipedia, Pardes refers to a legend of a sacred orchard or the four forms of Biblical exposition. As we're talking food here, I'm going to assume the owners named the restaurant with the first definition in mind. It's a kosher restaurant with very interesting menu items such as Bronzino tartare with carmelized butternut squash, licorice gastrique, lemon confit, and hazelnut oil or duck breast, with vanilla barley, charred corn, carob, and tarragon. And, of course they have to have pizza on the menu but this za has roasted tomato (pretty standard) fresh basil (okay) and beef cheek (wha?!?).

So any comments would be welcome. Has anyone tried that beef cheek pizza?
