New York City is home to some of the world’s most renowned chefs, as any visitor fortunate enough to dine there will attest. Bad Roman, a popular establishment in New York City, is one of them; they’ve just released a limited-time menu that ends next Tuesday, October 1.
Modern Italian fare with creative takes on salad and pasta staples is served at this beautifully appointed and enticingly Instagrammable restaurant near Columbus Circle. So, if you’re a foodie in the New York City region, you should definitely visit Bad Roman as soon as possible to indulge in this special menu.
The Bad Roman team has announced that their upcoming menu will feature a heavy emphasis on garlic. One dish, the Date Nite Pasta, will be served as a two-course dinner, and it will be accompanied by a 40-clove garlic breath punisher, a robust puttanesca, and an Altoids chaser, which is described as “the only mint Curiously adequate to finish a meal without all that flavor.”
Digestive mints have been around for a long time; Altoids didn’t come out until the late 1700s. This classic after-dinner drink is getting a modern makeover from Bad Roman.
You never knew you wanted this Altoids x Bad Roman collaboration until now
The creatives behind the famous Italian eatery are giving away more than just a post-meal mint; they’re presenting an entire tin that combines the serpentine design of Bad Roman with the instantly identifiable emblem of Altoids.The restaurant’s two digestifs, the Limonata Curiousa and the Shakerato Curioso, are a masterclass in Italian cocktail making.
An Italian sparkling lemonade mocktail flavored with peppermint Altoids, lemon juice, and sparkling water is the first. A non-alcoholic take on Bad Roman’s beloved Espresso Shakerato, the Shakerato Curioso combines espresso with Altoids peppermint for a flavor profile that’s all your own.
Not a New Yorker? Not to worry! Altoids and Big Night, a dinner party box curating company, are collaborating on a box that will include meals inspired by Bad Roman’s special menu. A special edition Altoids x Bad Roman tin is guaranteed to be inside the package.
On October 2, 2024, the “After Any Dinner” boxes will be on sale at Big Night’s website and begin shipping to addresses across 50 states.
