I had no reason not to trust my bartending source. That said, I was initially surprised by the name pick for a rumored bar to be opened by Audrey Saunders and Sasha Petraske, but was assured that the origin had to do with Welsh ancestry and not Harry Potter.
Have no idea if I was simply a belated April Fool or if my mixology mate was led astray and was simply passing along mis-information, but the folks at NY Mag's Grub Street did get confirmation that my Rumor report was off-base.
Still, I believe it is time to remember that The Vamp was indeed the first to break the news of Sara Jenkin's Porchetta and the first to report the opening of a Clark Street branch of Tazza.
Not bad for a food blogger who still has a day job.
