The Spy received two reports this weekend about restaurant happenings in Easton. The first is the emergence of the Washington Street Pub after a few years of downtime and renovation under BluePoint Hospitality’s ownership. In this case, a sharing of the inaugural menu indicates that the return of a favorite venue for downtown redevelopment is in good hands, as the group that brought you Sunflowers & Greens and the James Beard Award-winning Bas Rouge has found the sweet spot of keeping traditions alive with its first-tier oyster offerings, while offering prices that won’t break the bank.
The second was another Spy agent sending along a rather formal FQA circulating at Piazza in Talbottown that owner Emily Chander has made some decisions about her new restaurant now being built out next to her popular Itatoan deli. There had been speculation that one of the Shore’s premier foodies would surprise everyone by opening Easton’s first high-end fondue restaurant. Still, Spy intelligence reveals that Chandler is sticking to her core focus and passion: Italian cuisine.
Future reports are expected on both enterprises as they develop.
