                                    Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking
                                
                            
                    
                        Concrete floors, cream walls and an open kitchen with a wood-burning oven set an industrial-chic tone at Basta. Snag a spot at the bar and you'll have a front row seat to the culinary action, where family-style, contemporary Italian-American cooking is the name of the game. Start things off right with a shareable starter like burrata or the silky chicken liver mousse with peach mostarda that is sided by crusty bread from next-door sister bakery, Dry Storage. Definitely don't skip the smoked dark green olives—they're an unexpected delight. From there, entrees are satisfying, especially the half chicken. End on a sweet note with a plate of five beignet-style doughnuts dusted with powdered sugar and a dulce de leche Chantilly cream.
