Chef Jehangir Mehta switched over to the savory side last September when he opened his first restaurant Graffiti in the East Village. Armed with a few induction burners and assorted kitchen gadgets, Graffiti’s 4-person staff prepares and serves Mehta’s eclectic food out of a pint-sized kitchen. Before Graffiti, Mehta worked with Jean Georges Vongerichten, Rocco DiSpirito, and lots of other chefs. He was most recently pastry chef at Aix.As with Momofuku Ko around the corner, Graffiti’s cooks are also its servers. The restaurant received the designation of “your best bet” from the Post in an article on accessible wine programs at city restaurants. Grafitti's wine list follows one simple rule: Glasses are $8; bottles go for $25. Finally, Graffiti’s menu has three tier food price categories. Plates are either $7, $12, or $15. Start with the Green Mango Paneer ($7) and work your way up; a kickass meal for two can come in under $100, and the food is generally brilliant. Additionally, all dishes on the menu can be delivered vegetarian.
