*Chicken Vesuvio*
This buttermilk-brined half-chicken fits the fiery theme carried through the rooftop firepits and lounge fireplaces—it’s grilled over mesquite and served with a spicy chipotle sauce that will erupt in your mouth. Served with rosemary-roasted potatoes and baby artichoke hearts. Sixth and Junipero, Carmel. (831) 626-7373, www.vesuviocarmel.com
