Newly Opened Restaurant Bar Cena by Cast Iron Concepts

The newly opened Bar Cena is the latest drinking and dining establishment opened by Cast Iron Concepts. Under the direction of Owner Dom Ruggiero, known for his other popular restaurants Hush Public House (which resides next door to Bar Cena) and Fire at Will, the restaurant features a number of small plates boasting French, Italian and Spanish influences along with a vibrant craft cocktail program.

Hush General Manager Regina Di Salvo and Executive Chef Alex Harrison were instrumental in spearheading the development of Bar Cena while Chef de Cuisine Zack Myers led the charge on the creation of the menu, which encourages diners to select an array of small plates, each with their own unique, seasonal flavors.

The Muffuletta Croquettes dish, for example, features finocchiona, provolone, sesame seed and fennel olive salad, evoking traditional flavors of Tuscany. The pate en croute features pork shoulder, duck, pistachio, cranberry, port and Dijon, celebrating the unique tastes of this French-inspired starter.

Ruggiero is available for news story interviews and television segments during which he can further discuss the concept behind Bar Cena while preparing and demonstrating these dishes and other highlights from the menu for visual presentation.
