It's hard to keep up with Russell Norman and all his hip hangouts. He's went all American on us when has opened the diner of all diners. Spuntino –  (‘little snack’ in Italian, although there ain't much Italian going on here) is bang smack in the middle of the sleazy part of Soho; easy to find as its the only place not offering you a peep show. The place looks great & like BarChick it’s small, sexy and could probably get a little naughty.

You can see that the boys have done their research well in Brooklyn, in the food as well as the fit-out.  You’ll find sliders, mac and cheese, soft shell crab and a legendary truffled egg toast, even cheesy Southern grits! If you're fattening up for a film role then you have to see it all off with a Nutella Pizzarette. Of course, BarChick was much more interested in the booze – and Spuntino has a tidy selection of cocktails most of which are a handily Spuntino size and Spuntino priced so you can work your way through a good selection.  Kick-off with a Sazerac – spray of absinthe, bitters & bourbon mixed in a vintage silver teapot.  The clover clubs are pink and delicious too.
