Also, Fornino is equally huge and I think will be a hit with all. (And "food allergies" is nebulous. I am in the same boat - what are they allergic to? Gluten? Soy? Dairy? Seafood? Avocados? These are all ones that I've had to work around).Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268682064830616089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-53707275100433487882012-03-01T13:08:37.559-08:002012-03-01T13:08:37.559-08:00ODEON.

It has a similar casual/fun vibe, but I think they will be a little more 'kid' friendly (not in an obnoxious way... personally the thought of a 'kid-friendly' joint makes me shudder). Their food is delicious -- simple, seasonal, homemade, and local -- but still accessible to picky palates (kids, folks w/ allergies, cranky adults). Call in advance and tell them what the plan is, and they will help you out. I had a party there recently and it was an absolute blast.17 beats.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13010462456433196213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-73440812887263937572012-03-01T08:36:33.445-08:002012-03-01T08:36:33.445-08:00The Carriage House at Palma! on Cornelia St. Weddi...<a href="http://palmanyc.com/" rel="nofollow">The Carriage House at Palma!</a> on Cornelia St. Wedding.
