Bastone!

Wine-focused mozzarella bar.

Owner and chef Pat Pascarella’s grandfather used to play cards with the family after every get together and and his favorite card was the ace of clubs: the “bastone”. He would slam it down on the table whenever he won “Il Bastone!” We combined the meticulous yet organic nature of hand-made pasta with classic Italian playing cards to create a visual system that feels inviting and familiar with a little edge.
