Out of the ashes of Williamsburg's much-loved Brick Oven Gallery rises Kenny's, a casual Napoli trattoria from pizza master Kenny Perrone and three longtime neighborhood friends. Gallery's 100-year-old brick oven may have left the equation, but Kenny's menu is centered in the old world. Fifteen pastas, like homemade ravioli, are available daily, as well as entrees including grilled shrimp wrapped in prosciutto and steak pizzaiola. What does remain is Perrone's famous "Brooklyn caviar," which the inventor describes as a pureé of eggplant, fresh herbs, roasted tomatoes, olives and balsamic, served with flat bread. "Everybody loved that dish, so it had to stay," says the restaurant's namesake. Weekend brunch begins in a couple weeks, and a 75-person backyard becomes crucial in the warmer months.
