Café Clover opened earlier this week in the West Village. The new spot is focused on health.
The menu from executive chef David Standridge includes Baby Beets & Apples with lovage, celery leaf, and a teff crisp; Arctic Char with spaghetti squash, turnip greens, and black trumpet; and Cauliflower Steak with romesco and vegetable chutney. Bartender Johnny Swet of The Skylark and JIMMY creates cocktails such as the Tropic Thunder (rum, housemade pineapple syrup, fresh lime, and Thai bird’s eye chili).
The restaurant aims for the feel of a European salon, with its black and white lacquered walls in bold geometric patterns, vintage mirrors, and soft blue banquettes.
