A couple early reports are filtering in assessing scene newbies Little Bird (which opened December 6) and Grain & Gristle (which debuted a week later, on December 13). And so far, we've got nothing but raves! The voice of ExtraMSG, Nick Zukin, gives props to everything at Little Bird except the fries, while dubbing Grain & Gristle "a cross between Ned Ludd and Spints." Merc critic Tony Perez, meanwhile, kindly ignores his cold pot pie to also give G&G the thumbs-up. [PF.org and Blogtown]
