Plan B is all sleek and chic with doses of warm tones and chocolate hues sprinkled liberally throughout the lounge. Cozy white leather seats now brighten the room, and an upholstered bar begs you to sit and drink. In fact, you could come in just for the drinkage, as there are plenty of innovative cocktails, bubbly treats and a fine wine list.
But it would really be a complete shame to miss out on Chef Ryan Zuvich’s culinary wizardry. Formerly at Bin 942, Plan B owners lured him back to town from a stint in London to man the stoves at the Homer Street restaurant. Good move, as this creative and uncompromising chef gets the details right, and his instincts are correct; the pan-roasted diver scallops with crisp Serrano ham ($17), for prime example, is a must. Scallops are seared perfectly on the outside, while still tender inside. The crisp texture of the ham and the accompanying artichoke chips were a well-thought-out contrast.
