Chef John Villa (JUdson Grill) takes a new old-world approach at Pico, his stylish Portuguese-inspired restaurant in an old Bazzini nut plant in TriBeCa. Proximity to the Hudson befits mostly seafood starters like steamed cockles with fava beans and vinho verde while second courses like spit-roasted suckling pig with a citrus-and-honey glaze marry the rustic with the refined. The blue-and-gold color scheme is not the work of a University of Michigan grad but a tribute to Portugal's ubiquitous palette.

Not only is the food appealing, but so is the chef. Take a look at the April 2003 copy of Playgirl. Chef Villa is definately on my menu.

The roasted suckling pig is divine. The wine list is pretty good, but the markup can be pretty outrageous. The tile influence of Portugal can be found in the paintings throughout the restaurant.
