The RG heads out to Prospect Heights to review the neighborhood block party of a restaurant James. She's quickly smitten and awards it three stars: "...he's created a genuine, neighborhood restaurant. This doesn't necessarily mean the food is modest...The sautéed skate is elegant, a golden fan that conceals perfectly lovaged potatoes...There's no better canvas for fresh herbs than a blank chicken. And the roast chicken at James is a minor masterpiece." [NYDN]
