Tomato Time at Kris

POSTED: Wednesday, August 15, 2012, 10:36 AM

You don't have to be a seasonally attuned chef or farmers' market die-hard to know tomatoes are at their ripe, juicy peak in August and September. Kristian Leuzzi's Kris is celebrating the Jersey variety with a $24 tomato pre-fixe. The four courses ($6 a la carte) count salt cod with tomato carpaccio and chicken cutlet Milanese with tomato salad among them, and an extra $12 gets you a pour of spicy Imper Ale Rossa from Italian microbrewery Tenute Collesi. The Jersey tomato menu, in full bloom after the jump, is available nightly through Labor Day.
