Streetlevel: Ortine Restaurant Tomorrow in Prospect Heights

An OrtÃn is “a small garden plot next to a farmhouse where farm workers grew food for themselves,” say the folks at Ortine, who plan to open their 35-seat localvore eatery at 622 Washington Avenue between Pacific and Dean tomorrow. It will be a cafe by day, with free wi-fi and granola or Belgian waffles available all day long. After noon, lunch fare includes seasonal greens with homemade creamy garlic or lemon dressing; marinated portobello mushroom and goat cheese sandwich; or sweet Italian sausage. Dinner: roasted Cornish game hen; mushroom lasagna; or braised short ribs. Perhaps this will be a boost to buyers checking out the glut of Washington Avenue condos nearby? GMAP
