Nicosi dessert bar to debut June 26 at San Antonio’s Pullman Market
The reservation-only and no-phones-allowed Nicosi is the third dining spot to open inside the Pearl's new culinary market. The third restaurant concept, Nicosi, is set to debut at Pullman Market in San Antonio on June 26. The 20-seat dessert bar will feature a tasting menu that includes flavors from acid, sweet, bitter and umami. Award-winning pastry chef Tavel Bristol-Joseph will oversee the concept, which will rotate its menu every three months and allow diners to have one-on-one conversations with chefs. The restaurant will incorporate surprise into its presentation and will have a no-phone policy to encourage conversation and connection. Each seating costs $100 with non-alcoholic pairings and $120 with alcoholic drinks. Pullman hasn't yet set a date for the opening of Isidore, a fine-dining spot focused on Texas-farmed ingredients.
