“Bao 111”

Occasion:	Cuisine:	Area:	Cost:	Rating:

This sleek little spot on Avenue C gets major snaps for its contemporary brand of Vietnamese fare. Drawing an eclectic crowd of stiletto-ed babes and overly coiffed men, as well as those without a care about fashion, Bao 111 is an alluring space, marked by amber lighting and wood banquettes littered with embroidered pillows. The menu is authentic Vietnamese, tweaked for a trendy New York palate. Expect dishes like the signature short ribs, skewered on lemongrass, spring rolls with mint and basil, five-spice quail, and crab and shrimp soup with noodles.

Bao 111, 111 Avenue C (7th St.), 212- 254-7773.
