"It’s no secret that Osteria La Baia, which opened in 2021, is the ostensibly vegan mayor’s favorite restaurant, where his usual order is a $55 plate of branzino with wood-roasted sweet peppers, smoked tomato, and capers. The restaurant is owned by “Robert and Zhan Petrosyants — twin brothers whose businesses Mr. Adams has supported despite the brothers’ past felony convictions, outstanding tax debts, and a trail of legal troubles,” the New York Times reports. Adams reportedly visited the restaurant 14 times in June; the Times said reporters never saw the mayor pay a bill, but the mayor’s office says he pays the bill monthly — without providing receipts." - Melissa McCart
