Is there anything more lovely than a lazy lunch at Lupa? You’d be hard-pressed to convince the regulars otherwise, as they flock in droves to this Thompson Street treasure for its amicable service, interesting wines and otherworldly pasta.Carefully sourced products are scattered throughout this menu—witness perfectly seared octopus alla piastra, starring tender faro with crispy bits of prosciutto and fennel, or a starter of plump, marinated sardines laced with oil, coarse salt and served over diced cucumber and celery. But the highlight of this parade is the pasta, which may include decadent bavette cacio e pepe, a classic preparation from Lazio. It’s nothing short of satisfying, thanks to the addition of sharp pecorino and freshly ground black pepper.
