| - Another spot to add to my list of Places to Lunch in the Old Port. A keeper, this one.
Depending on the weather, you can stay inside and stay cool in the spacious, chic interior room, or you can go outside and sun yourself on the fairly sizable terrace.
They have a fresh, seasonal menu of a daily soup, a collection of tasty-sounding sandwiches and salads, and a meal of the day. My friend found the meal of today (rice noodles with a meat sauce) a bit heavy for her taste, but most of the rest of the options are fairly light. My salad with blackened chicken, feta cheese, walnuts, and maple vinaigrette was just right for lunch on a hot summer day. We had a small bowl of gazpacho to start as well, which was unusually spiced and good.
They have what looks like a nice by-the-glass wine list, but the work waiting for me in the afternoon kept me from sampling it. So I opted for a limonata, which was especially refreshing when the sun started hitting my back.
They're mostly a weekday lunch place, opened Monday-Friday. But they occasionally do events, and I am curious to check out their weekly Thursday 5 à 7.
I spied a few moving plates of the house gravlax served with baby potatoes and arugula on my way out. I think I've already found my next lunch at Daylight Factory.
