A pre-review nibble from next week’s Cafe:
While Norman is head honcho, co-chefs are son Justin Van Aken and Philip Bryant, the latter working with the elder Van Aken since 2005. “Globally inspired, seasonally wired,” is their menu motto.

Instead of doing a 360 and returning to his fine-dining roots, or starting from zero and redefining his cuisine altogether, Norman and team have combined the two notions and come up with a discombobulated 180 (also the address) — which means that a $39 main plate of rib eye steak mingles on the menu with an $8 small plate of crispy chicken wings.
