"Backed by Ford Fry, and taking over the spaces previously home to JCT Kitchen and Bar, Little Sparrow and Bar Blanc offer his take on French brasserie fare. This includes poulet frites stuffed with black truffles and brioche prepared table side at Little Sparrow downstairs and a prix-fixe menu at $49.50 per person of steak frites, salad, and bread for the table upstairs at Bar Blanc. Like the food, cocktails at both bars lean into French twists on classics like the Pigalle with bourbon and calvados, the armagnac and rye-based La Boheme mixed with benedictine, combier, and chocolate bitters, and a perfectly petit martini. As with most of Fry’s restaurants, the best seat in the house is definitely at the bar." - Beth McKibben
