New on the Menu: Boulud Sud’s Halloween candy-inspired pasta, Cuban spring rolls

The latest dishes and drinks that have us doing a double-take this week include Asian fusion stuffed chicken wings, Cuban “cigars” rolled in rice paper and a new pasta dish at Boulud Sud that takes inspiration from trick-or-treating.

Those of us at Restaurant Hospitality regularly see what independent operators are dishing out, but some menu items make us stop and stare — whether they involve an out-of-the-box way of using an ingredient, the appearance of a burgeoning trend or simply stunning presentations. We bring you NOM: our New on the Menu weekly roundup.
