When your biggest issue is lighting for your food pictures, you know you have found a good spot.
Met my ladies for our semi-monthly lunch date. On first impression, I liked the aesthetic changes they made as this space was formerly DW Bistro. (Not that DW wasn't also adorable.) Glasses of sparkling rosé were clinked, and we took on the world from our table in the cozy back corner of the main dining room.
My friends both enjoyed lobster rolls (they looked good but a bit overdressed for my taste.) I ordered the Thai chicken burger - and folks - it was so clucking good!!
The ground chicken was delightfully seasoned and served on a PRETZEL BUN (Yass!!) with a delicious aioli and sautéed peppers. Duck fat fries were an option but I went with their lightly dressed mixed greens instead. It's been 24 hours and I'm still thinking about this burger, it's that good.
When it was time to order dessert, one of my friends placed her order for the lemon tart, and our charming waiter asked if we would all be sharing it--and we laughed and laughed. Two lemon tarts and a chocolate walnut gateau later and we were 3 very happy ladies.
The lightly brûléed lemon wedge was a citrusy flavor explosion, and the tart itself was to die for. I tasted the gateau and it was also heaven on a plate.
We might not have been able to solve all of society's problems during this lunch date, but I'm sure we will give it a go again in the future, and I'm already planning a trip back with my husband for dinner. Whoever said money can't buy happiness has clearly never eaten here.
