| - Friend: "I'm going to pick Liberty Market for our dinner club this month"
Me: "OMG! I LOVE Liberty Market!"
Friend: "I love it too! So you've been there?"
Me: "Uh, well, no. It just seems like the type of place I know I'm going to love."
I was right. Cool ambiance, awesome food choices, and fantastic service... is it possible to have a crush on a restaurant? It would be such a perfect place to drop by for brunch or lunch, but sadly, it's about 30 miles away for me. Sigh.
David, the executive chef and co-owner of Liberty Market took care of us - what a cool guy. I just read his bio on Liberty Market's website and he's had quite a history. His collaboration with Joe (of Joe's Family Farm and Joe's BBQ) made some magic.
I shared sandwiches with a friend, so I could try two. I had the Maiden Lane (turkey, brie, red cabbage slaw, cranberry, and a horseradish aioli). I really liked the combo of the cranberry with horseradish. It definitely has a kick to it. I also had half of The Farmer (roasted veggies, grilled sweet potato, and goat cheese). Loved all the veggies! Note: make sure you like goat cheese because there's a generous amount (Another friend got it sans cheese and liked it a lot). I also had the sweet potato salad on the side - delicious!
We couldn't leave without trying dessert. We shared carrot cake (it was very gingery which I love) and had delicious frosting. We also ordered a chocolate/peanut butter square which was a scrumptious tower of chocolate, peanut butter, and crackers sprinkled with sea salt. Bravo on the desserts!
So how about opening a Liberty Market II on the north end of the Valley?
