Rigatoni Bourbon Street, chorizo, shrimp, crawfish, vegetables, brandy, and Cajun cream sauce ($26) lets a New Orleans jazz band of scatting shellfish jive in your stomach, and organic cuisine such as whole-wheat penne with shrimp, roasted red peppers, olives, capers, basil, pomodoro sauce, and shaved romano ($25) keeps cybernetic noodle strands from infiltrating your rebel pasta base. Each dish can be matched with Nicholas James Bistro's aromatic cascade of wines, and its modern yet cozy two-level dining room hosts a soothing roster of live musicians who are always open to diners accompanying them on the spoons, wine jug, or repeatedly squeezed duck.

About Nicholas James Bistro
Kevin Liebov has labored in the kitchens of high-class restaurants throughout New York—from the Enoteca Toscana in Queens to Andiamo in Manhattan. In 1996, Kevin and his father, Charles, opened Nicholas James Bistro, where the chef continues to draw from years of study, experience, and experimentation to craft his inventive menu of contemporary American bistro fare. His cooking techniques eschew heavy creams and vegetables made out of frosting in favor of organic and whole-wheat ingredients.
Outside Liebov's kitchen, towering mirrors reflect the white-clothed tables of his elegant dining room. A bar stretches across the space—just as galaxies named after candy bars stretch across space—where bartenders dole out fine wines and martinis. Throughout the month, the restaurant hosts live music, featuring many local acoustic, jazz, and rock bands.
