Hold your hippogriffs, there’s a Harry Potter-themed restaurant in Brooklyn. With medieval-like light fixtures, big leather chairs, wax candles, goblets on the tables and a sorting hat, the Potter premise at Pasta Wiz is half-baked at best (there’s not even any Butterbeer on the menu). But it’s better than nothing. The Huffington Post spoke with Alex Dimitrov, owner of the Williamsburg-based restaurant that’s been open for only four days. “The place is magical so [the] Harry Potter theme came naturally,” he said via an email exchange, adding, “We do plan to have Harry Potter-themed events and meet ups.”
