When entering Nick's Homestyle restaurant, one is enveloped by a warm bouquet of buttery oil, bread and a friendly, casual atmosphere. As my smiling hostess leads me to a table, I search for, but do not find, the traditional Italian decor I am expecting.
There are no tables covered in tassled cloth, and only one chandelier in sight. On the drinks menu there is a black and white photo of a marble sculpture, yet even this reference to the Italian Renaissance era feels like a parody next to the modern menu design. Yes, everything feels very nontraditional.
