Little Park (the hidden bar in back)

Tucked away behind the lounges of the Whyte Hotel (literally behind closed doors), is a small bar serving a reduced menu from, Little Park (the wonderful front of house restaurant).  It is perfectly dim (light matters a great deal to 1FTB). Seated patrons murmur, but room is not crowded (the hostess, a room closer to the front lines of West Broadway, keeps it that way). Fireplace is a lovely touch on a cold sleeting night. Bar staff of one is technically capable and is often a different person each day (it seems). Big eye tuna tartar at $18 tops the short menu. In a hotel, so does not yet seem like a place with ‘regulars’. Eating here is not the main event, but it can be done.  Corner of West Broadway & Chambers in Tribeca.
