“P*ONG”

Occasion:	Cuisine:	Area:	Cost:	Rating:
Night Out	New American	West Village	Moderate	Good

he night, a tangy lemongrass infused Greek yogurt ice cream over a kafir lime meringue was.

While I didn’t love everything at P*ONG, I was inspired by it, and impressed by Pichet’s passion and vision. He’s taking lots of risks, and in that paradigm there’s great reward but there’s also the potential for downside—not everyone’s gonna like Meyer lemon mousse with their tuna. And that’s okay. Because just as many who don’t like it, will love it. (I was in the minority at the table on that one.)

This much is true: the food is impressive, if not perfect. Take yourself out to P*ONG, sit back and have a night of adventure and intrigue. You can have your pork belly, meatballs, and gnudi tomorrow night.

P*ONG is located at 150 West 10th Street, near Waverly Place, 212-929-0898.
