A Sign of Spring

Although it's snowing today, I'm confident that spring has sprung. Why? Because last night, I saw the telltale words "fiddlehead ferns" on the menu at Parish & Co (Closed in 2006). These tasty green curlicues, available only in earliest spring, added some crunch to my delectable garbanzo and wheatberry salad in a soy-ginger dressing.

A glass of Riesling, an entrée of rich, buttered potato gnocchi accented with shallots and fried sage, and a lemongrass-lime crème brulee completed my celebration of the season's arrival. To Spring!

Parish & Co.: 202 9th Ave., (212) 414-4988.
