Peter Hoffman to Open Back Forty West in Savoy Space

A few weeks ago, news broke that Peter Hoffman had tapped chef Shanna Pacifico from Back Forty for his new project in the old Savoy space. Now Zagat reports that this will actually be an expansion of his casual American place, and that it will be called Back Forty West. The menu will be similar but not identical to the one that's served in Alphabet City. The new Back Forty is slated to debut in a few weeks.
