Former Top Chef contestant Jeff McInnis has brought his classic Southern cuisine to the East Village. Featuring conscientiously sourced. farm-fresh ingredients that harken to flavors and traditions of the rural South, Root & Bone has a down-home feel and a wealth of signature sandwiches—Avenues A through D, for instance, of which the first is the most compelling: a fried chicken and waffle sandwich with whiskey maple syrup—and the sort of chicken selections you'd expect besides. There are small plates, like a blue crab Waldorf salad and "drunken" deviled eggs, as well as regular entrees, including a brain-busting braised short rib meatloaf, served with a parsnip root mash and tomato ketchup jam, and a shrimp and grits with a Brooklyn Lager jus.
