One of my concerns about moving from NYC was leaving behind my favorite food shops and restaurants, the regular haunts I had adored and frequented over the years. I thought it  impossible to find suitable replacements in the suburbs.  When I stumbled upon Chef Jamie Cooper and the beautiful food he was serving at Abbondanza by day, and Bonda by night, I realized I was wrong! 

This little gem in Westport just off of Exit 17 of I95 has become my NYC replacement eatery and thus my salvation.
