"A 14-seat epicurean laboratory of sorts opened in December under Glover Park’s one-Michelin-starred tasting room Xiquet. El Taller del Xiquet, the latest project from Valencian chef Danny Lledó, features a bustling cheese cart, inventive paellas, and unctuous desserts — all served in an a la carte format. El Taller del Xiquet, which translates literally into “Xiquet’s workshop,” will serve almost as the research and development arm of its more formal sibling restaurant located right upstairs. El Taller takes over the ground-floor space formerly occupied by Slate Wine Bar, which closed in late 2022." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
