The small-plates trend is here to stay, despite those who decry the meager portions, inflated prices and lack of imagination of some tapas-takeoff restaurants. But no place executes small plates better than Supper. Supper’s genius lies in its inherently American dishes. Sure, irresistible nibbles like Moroccan-spiced boneless chicken wings flaunt international influences, but their core of deliciousness is completely familiar. Ditto the ham and butter tartine, sea scallops with uni butter, and pork belly with lentils and wine sauce. Unlike less successful variations on tapas, these dainty dishes deliver real satisfaction. We guarantee you won’t want a slice of pizza after dinner’s over.
