"I observed Bardot Cafe in Northern Liberties functioning as Hoagie Dom’s self-styled residency and clandestine practice space: stepping into Bardot during off hours feels almost like a secret mission, and its bar served as the staging area where Rocconi tested his Italian hoagie, drew a crowd (one passerby even recognized him from the street), and refined the assembly and theatrical finishing touches that make his pop-ups so buzzy." - Abigail Weil
