If you’ve noticed the sidewalk seats out on Hudson Street, you know Dos Caminos Meatpacking District is just about ready to open in the former Vento space — next Monday, to be exact. Rest assured, this isn’t an exact clone of the other locations — at least not as far as the menu is concerned. Executive chef Ivy Stark (under the watch of corporate executive chef Scott Linquist) is using a barbecue pit to slow-roast meats over mesquite and applewood (she’ll also use banana leaves for dishes like the cochinita pibil). New dishes include a roasted whole dorado, a roasted duck breast, Berkshire pork chops, and cabrito. Check out the complete menu below and click through the slideshow to see the Mexican makeover as well as some of the dishes. Dos will be open for lunch Monday through Friday, 11:30 a.m. till 4 p.m.; for brunch on Saturday and Sunday (same hours); and for dinner Sunday through Tuesday from 5 p.m. till 11 p.m., Wednesday and Thursday till midnight, and Friday and Saturday till 1 a.m.
