Yesterday, Papa Buddha and I hit up Bruce Logue’s La Pietra Cucina, our go to lunch destination. Since it opened, people have lambasted the establishment for its “decor.” Well, all that’s about to change as the main dining area has been sealed off and the windows have been filled with the following sign:
– 
I’m curious to see what changes May will bring. I find myself squarely in the minority on this one. I really liked the size of the place and can only hope the intimacy of the experience is not lost. I don’t want hustle and bustle with my Cucina; rather, I want slow and smooth. Anyway, it is what it is.
As always, the food kicks some major butt! Everything was top notch and the Buddha boys left with full bellies and nothing but naps in our future! Here are a few snapshots to wet your whistle… but you can also check out the Flickr Set if you want some more shots.

I wholeheartedly agree with you about the intimacy of the space. I specifically took my dad there last week for dinner just so he could experience it before it becomes too big. I’m happy for Chef Logue, but I’ll miss the “original” Pietra come May.
Keep up the good work!
