| - So I ended up going to Moxie for their restaurant week offering a few weeks ago, and it was quite a pleasant experience. The appetizer was a warm tomato tart, which was a tart of puff pastry topped with ricotta, tomatoes, basil, and a vinaigrette. Overall a great combination of tastes, although just slightly too soft/soggy on the bottom. For my main course, I chose the pan seared trout, which came with gnocchi, swiss chard, and green beans. I was surprised to find such a generous offering of trout, which was moist, with a delicious skin, and the meat was cooked to just the right amount of tenderness. My only complaint about the dish was that the gnocchi were sparse, and were almost playing a game of hide and seek under the trout. The dessert was "baked hot chocolate", a gooey chocolate cake topped with a nice helping of whipped cream. It was a great ending to a fantastic meal.
The restaurant itself was a pleasure to be at, with a classy interior design, and I had no complaints about the waitstaff. All in all, I had a great meal and was glad to have stopped by for restaurant week.
