I had a few amazing first's at this little down town, urban eatery. My First Tartar and believe it or not... My First time trying Charred Brussel Sprouts. I know... how have I never ordered Brussel Sprouts at a restaurant. Well I will from now on!
The Tartar was Filet Tartar. Topped with Egg Yolk Confit and Parmesan. Served with Pickles and Grilled Bread. This was so decadent, that even sharing, my husband and I did not finish it. It was very good, just too rich to keep going. The Pickles were a pleasant side pairing with the richness of the egg yoke. I would get this again but it might be a once in a year kind of thing for me. The Charred Brussel Sprouts were made with whole grain mustard and toped with Parmesan Cheese and Cashews. These little babies were a treat. Pop them in your moth and crunch down on pockets of awesomeness. These were gone in a matter of minutes, unlike the Tartar. Loved getting that extra crunch from the cashews.
We finished our night of exploring new things with something we were very familiar with. Carrot Cake. Crumbled Carrot Cake with brown butter ice cream and of course layered with cream cheese. Nothing special but very good. I tried to take the baby carrot that topped the cake out with us for the night but my husband wouldn't let me. It was just so damn cute!
Besides our meal we really enjoyed our 2 servers. I did not catch their names. Something I need to get better at. But it was a young man and woman that were personal and friendly. We very much enjoyed the atmosphere and set up of this place as well. Open layout with stairs that go up to what I think is a separate dinning area. Possibly for private parties I am assuming. And a very large high top bar area, where we sat. I can definitely see myself coming back next time I am in town.
