Borough Food & Drink, the new Flatiron arrival that's the first U.S. collaboration of chef Zak Pelaccio (Fatty Crab) and restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow (China Grill), celebrates Little Old New York via a nostalgic American menu that covers every ethnic base from fried chicken to herring and sausage plates, all supplied by local mom-and-pop purveyors; the raw wood–lined space (former site of Rocco DiSpirito’s infamous reality TV show) channels a rural country store, and comes complete with a flea market–furnished, pool table–equipped lounge.
