No Crust, No Fuss
You might think of the tramezzino -- the Venetian take on the English tea sandwich -- as the Arch Deluxe, or at least the Filet-O-Fish, of Italian fast food: In New York's ever-expanding panini-and-wine-bar world, it lives in the hot-and-crunchy shadow of the more popular pressed panino. Typically served on crustless white bread, cut into neat little triangles, and looking like an overgrown canap�, it practically defies you not to raise a pinkie. Unlike a cucumber sandwich, though, it can pack a serious flavor punch, which explains why even San Domenico owner Tony May has jumped on the sandwich bandwagon with a new tramezzini lunch menu, served at the bar. The selection of $4.50 sandwiches, like vitello tonnato, Gorgonzola and walnut, and prosciutto cotto and fontina, changes daily. (Two tramezzini make a nice light lunch.) There's also an expanded by-the-glass wine list to complement the sandwiches, and not a ciabatta crumb in sight.

Night Shift
Not that anyone who lives on Clinton Street is in danger of running out of dining options these days, but here's a new one: The Clinton St. Baking Company, which already has a devoted following for its nothin'-fancy-just-good-eats breakfast, lunch, and weekend brunch, has just added dinner to its repertoire. On the menu: lemon pasta with anchovy, fresh garlic, and olive oil; pan-fried Eden Brook trout; and a serious burger plate. And in case anyone misses breakfast, chef Neil Kleinberg will whip up a batch of his killer pancakes packed with enough wild Maine blueberries to satisfy a small grizzly.
