“I’ve been talking about having a space for me for 10-15 years,” says Victoria Ross. It is now done with his disco Mayo dinner, a nice place where we gather around an unpretentious gourmet sandwich.
Victoria Ross zieuit the premises of rue Clark, in Little Italy, for a long time. When he was free, the owner jumped at the opportunity to create a place in his image. You should know that the latter has worked for many years in catering. It has accumulated long hours in several establishments, including the Graziella and the Pullman. “I become a little older and I wanted to work for myself, and not for a boss,” she said.
After thinking of opening a restaurant, it is rather the idea of a dinner where you come to refuel for lunch, and where you can have lunch, which conquered it. We can therefore go there at 8 a.m. and at 10 a.m. on weekends, to taste lunch sandwiches, including disco Dej with his Tocino bacon, his potato pancake-of McCain, because why try to do better, slides the owner-, her banana ketchup and, of course, the flowing egg. For lunch, there is no shortage of choices between sandwiches with various inspirations (Philippine, Italian and even Cajun) or salads, which bet on the simplicity and freshness of the ingredients. If you have the sweet tooth, you should not miss the sundaes made with the ice cream Furniture. Obviously, the address offers cafes, but also cold drinks for summer such as very sweet Thai iced tea.
The local, Victoria Ross personalized it. One has the impression of entering your apartment, a vinyl record plays in the background, and it is furniture and accessories-from home or classified ads-which decorate the place. Works of art of friends and some of the owner even dress the walls.
And why the name Disco Mayo? The catchy name, born during an evening with friends, remained, indicates the owner. The latter knew that it would be suitable for a project. Victoria Ross hopes that her dinner will be unifying, and we can already say that she has chosen a cool spotsince the Pasta Pooks restaurant has taken up residence in the same retro building.
