The team from Bin 36 are behind this contemporary River North Roman trattoria. The menu features hand-made pasta (A Mano translates to "by hand"), wood-fired pizzas, antipasti and gelato (chef John Caputo honed his gelato skills at Chicago's Carpigiani's Frozen Dessert University before A Mano opened, and he installed a top-of-the-line gelato machine). Expect choices like pumpkin ravioli with black walnuts, walnut butter and pumpkin flowers; pappardelle with braised wild boar and raisins; grilled monkfish with borlotti beans; and a heritage pork loin chop with braised apples and endive. They enlisted the same firm who designed Bin to handle A Mano; the rustic, yet contemporary space with features exposed bricks and wrought iron. There's also a raised area with comfy couch seating in addition to more traditional tables and chairs.
