Small Animal Feast: Chef Joe Dobias—whose tiny East Village restaurant JoeDoe most definitely still has it—only sources his non-beef meat from one local farmer. John Fazio's duck, chicken and rabbit farm in Modena, 80 miles outside of the city, has gotten much foodie love, but Dobias really wants you to know just how good his product is. So on Thursday night he's hosting a "small animal" feast in his small restaurant. With Fazio on hand Dobias will be serving up three courses of small animal fare including a twist on crispy duck leg, a coconut-braised rabbit and fried chicken skin. They swear the experience will make you forget all about beef. (Garth Johnston)45 East 1st Street // Thursday, July 14th, 7:30 p.m. // $50 per person for three courses, $75 with wine, beer and spirit pairings // Reservations required (call soon, there are only a few spots left), 212-780-0262
