The Four Horsemen

Reservations are required or be ready to queue at this eternally cool Williamsburg wine bar part-owned by LCD Soundsystem frontman, James Murphy. Four Horseman's wine list is eclectic and laser-focused on varietals, and Chef Nick Curtola's succinct and seasonally changing menu rarely misses.Start with the veal sweetbread skewers with soy-cured egg yolk. Or the crisp chickpea crepe, woven with pieces of squash blossoms that lures you in with a layer of glistening lardon. Fried skate wing comes to you deep golden and impossibly crisp, and the Berkshire pork is tender with a hint of cider glaze. Let the sociable staff talk you into closing over a silky crème caramel topped with deeply toasted crispy bits of soba.
