Meso Mediterranean Cuisine Is a Melting Pot of Flavor in Rye
Drawing upon the cuisines of France, Italy, Spain, Greece, and North Africa, Meso shows Westchester just how delicious Mediterranean fare can be.
It’s often reported that Mediterranean is the healthiest among world cuisines, with its core components of fresh vegetables and fruit daily, olive oil, fish, legumes, whole grains, and limited red meat. Yet characterizing a cuisine as “healthy” leads some to (mistakenly) believe it means unflavorful.
MESO, a Delicious Melting Pot
There is nothing middling about MESO; it’s a perfect mix of locally sourced food and a worldly philosophy.
On our first visit, three of us sampled everything from the Meso platter to the mushroom soup finished with truffle oil, the grilled octopus over roasted new potatoes, homemade pasta topped by a one-pound lobster, roasted Brussels sprouts, and truffle mac & cheese. We found room to share a serving of pistachio gelato.
