Williamsburg Restaurant Fandi Mata Opens a Six-Seat Mezcal Bar Upstairs | Eater NY

"I’m looking forward to the six-seat mezcal bar opening on September 29 on the second floor of Fandi Mata, the Williamsburg brunch destination known for its many plants and impossibly high ceilings. The restaurant — a bi-level Mediterranean spot Grub Street likened to an “over-the-top postindustrial jungle” after converting a former mechanic shop — has been outfitted with plants, a sprawling bar, and a pizza oven that spits out paper-thin, Roman-style pies. Its collection of mezcals, curated by partner Milos Zica (formerly of West Village cocktail bar Employees Only), can be sampled in tasting flights or mixed into a half-dozen cocktails." - Luke Fortney
