On the heels of just having eaten 2 weeks of Asian street food, we’d say that overall what we had was good, but nothing really popped out as very memorable. I do admire their philosophy of trying to source locally when possible and building the menu off whatever is in season, which makes their menu ever changing. It’s a rather socially responsible restaurant. I noticed too they don’t use cloth tablecloths but rather a thin piece of white paper.
But then you’re never sure what you’re going to get or you’re not sure what they’re serving that night will be what you’re in the mood for. We actually came to try their blood sausage but later learned that was from last week’s menu.
What we got:
- venison terrine with cherries – super scrumptious after I realized venison is not baby cow but rather Bambi’s mother. The former made me feel really awful.
- pickled sardines – a little fishy but I love sardines!
- pumpkin soup – it tasted fresh
- gnocchi with oysters and octopus
- slow cooked shoat shoulder – Baby pig shoulder with skin cooked crispy. It was outta this world, fall-apart tender.
Their breadbasket came with these Cheez-it-like crackers. I would’ve liked to take the rest home they were so good, but by the time we finished all that food and a bottle of wine, we couldn’t even look at food anymore.
