Privy 5 Overview
The rationale behind the name Dirt Candy comes from Pure Food and Wine alumni and owner Amanda Cohen, and this is essentially her philosophy. Although we are loath to cut meat out from our diet, the starch heavy menu was just too appealing to miss out on an opportunity for some very fine dining. We are talking pickled shiitake topped grits with a tempura poached egg. Committed carnivores leave Dirt Candy totally blown away, and certainly not craving a burger. The ideal meal is spinach soup, lemon-sage gnocchi tossed with brown butter and Brussels sprouts; and it has to end with the popcorn pudding.
