Creole and Italian, after dark

Creole and Italian, after dark

Provaré is a small room in West Town where Creole and Italian cooking share a table, led by chef and co-owner Jourdan Higgs. The MICHELIN Guide calls it "a small and intimate gem," and we think that's about right.

Privé is our speakeasy in the basement of Provaré. Our host walks you to a hidden bookcase, and that's the door.
