When you’re trying to charge into NYC’s crowded foodscene, it helps to be named after an infamous bull that mauled alegendary Spanish matador. Okaaaay, not really what you wanted to readbefore dinner. How about this: The chef at this elegant Midtown spot isa Boulud alum, and while the resto’s name gives props to theaforementioned bull, the Spanish theme plays out nicely on a menu thatriffs on Spanish faves (potato-and-chorizo croquettas, lamb chop withsweet-rice torta), with a few creative twists (plantains with sea-saltcaramel and ciltantro crème fraiche).
