Provini Is Infiltrated by ‘Needy, Greedy Narcissists’ With Kids

Holistic psychotherapist Peter Loffredo seems like a chill and New Agey guy on his website, but don’t get him started about kids in restaurants. He laments that Provini, the new one from the owners of Bar Tano, has been infiltrated by what he calls the “You’ll never get to be an adult in Park Slope without tolerating my kids” crowd.

Provini deliberately doesn’t have high chairs, I was secretly told by a waitress, and there certainly isn’t any room for strollers, but the exquisite wine list alone should keep kids out, don’t you think? Not in Park Slope, where pathetic parents don’t want to live with the choices they’ve made, so they crash everyone else’s party. CRASH?! Yep. Everyone turned around to see the glass breaking on the floor at the table with the toddlers.

Hmmm, is it time to add Provini to the list of restaurants to avoid if you can’t stand kids? And what’s more annoying, kids in fancy restaurants or Sex and the City types at Mars Bar?
