F: Is for downtown food

Ward III, is the new venue brought to you by an all-star team of bartenders from The Odeon, Ella, Grace Bar and Macao Trading Co. So think cocktails made to custom perfection. This 25-foot wood bar made entirely from vintage Singer sewing macines. The cocktail list offers items like the Baby Eveline (made with vodka, prosecco, strawberries, Peychaud's bitters and fresh lemon juice, $12). How about Ward 111 (Makers Mark, strawberries, lime, egg white, peychauds bitters & nutmeg) or The Collective (blended scotch, Dolin sweet vermouth, lemon, honey, egg white). The Singer (rye, fresh raspberries, orange bitters, fresh lemon, honey water). As for food...how does wild mushroom lasagna, mac 'n' cheese, bacon wrapped dates, and deviled eggs, sound?. Sounds yuppy right? No, think vintage Tribeca with exposed brick. Ward 111 at 111 Reade St seems like a new place to hang your hat and that is a F.A.C.T.
