Diners at Barbara Lynch's new casual concept in the Fort Point Channel neighborhood eat perched on small stools at a zigzagging white counter. Modeled after Italian roadside eateries (but admittedly fancier), Sportello serves lunch and dinner with a menu heavy on truffles, porcini, robiola, bolognese, and gnocchi and divided into soups, salads, polenta, pastas, and grilled flatbread—all $25 or less. That's a food pyramid we can all get behind.
