| - We went to Thyme for a special birthday lunch. It was a beautiful summer Saturday, so we dined on the deck, which was quite nice. The service and ambiance were great, and that's why they get 3 stars, because the food was mediocre or worse. I had a pepperoni pizza. It was a greasy, soggy mess. They should have served it in a bowl. Actually, they served it on a metal pizza pan with a piece of paper under the pizza, probably to soak up some of the grease. Since it was impossible to pick up, I attempted to eat it with knife and fork, but kept getting bits of paper in with the goo. I finally managed to get the paper out from under and ate what I could. I was quite hungry, and I love pizza, so this was a great disappointment. My wife had a salmon salad - basically a piece of salmon on a bed of spinach with some thinly sliced apple (or pear?). Despite a sign on the door that said "Farm to table to you," and a wonderful farmers market that took place all morning only a block away, the spinach appeared to come straight from a bag, and was not at all fresh. The salmon was, at best, meh. Not going back.
