After the jump, check out the working menu for Marc Vetri’s AmĂ­s, which will open Thursday, Jan. 14 on the corner of 13th and Waverly. They’re starting out dinner-only, with plans to introduce daily lunch service beginning March 1. Vetri also says he’s planning a special industry night for local FOH/BOH types within the first few weeks — he and chef Brad Spence will be cooking gratis grub for in-the-biz workers on the late-night tip, date forthcoming. Pay as you go for booze (clearly the guy knows how y’all tend to drink).
