Image001 Fresh from the inbox, Fig & Olive is launching a third location, this time in midtown--right smack in between the Upper East Side and Meatpacking District locations. It's shooting to open on April 14th, and further PR blurbage is as follows: "The new two-story venue off Fifth Avenue encompasses 5,000 square feet, with each floor providing a distinctly, different experience for 200 guests.  On the first floor, the street level entrance opens up to a retail collection of olive oils, continuing on to a 50 foot marble bar and communal dining table for 30 guests, and has zinc tables overlooking an open kitchen for 60 guests. Throughout the day, the Counter Bar will offer 'takeaway' and prepared items to the neighboring corporate lunch clientele, including freshly baked olive oil bread and savories, baked on premise daily, warm paninis as well as FIG & OLIVE’s signature salads with unique olive oil dressings. ...The second floor of FIG & OLIVE FIFTH AVENUE features 2,500 square feet of elegant dining with open windows overlooking midtown."
