I think the view is impeccable.
Jury is still out on the food for me.
Starters: Chicken donuts. Ok. Well I am not a huge donut fan. However.. these donuts weren't particularly sweet unless you had some of the miso caramel on the plate. Add these with the chicken and the Jalapeno cream - I'm sold. Very good combination.
Mussels and clams fideo. Just ok - keep in mind fideo is little pieces of pasta - they were good - just nothing spectacular. There was little flavor in the broth so the Spanish Chorizo was probably the highlight of this dish because it was pretty good.
I had the BBQ beef cheeks with local grains, bok choy with chipotle. So I guess I had always heard (maybe too much Bourdain) that beef cheeks were amazing. I really wasn't impressed with them, but I am not sure if that was just the case in this instance, or if I just wouldn't like them that much in general. The chipotle on them was spicy and a little overwhelming and the beef cheeks consistency was gummy and really flavorless. I guess the texture to me wasn't the best and so that is why I am confused as to why these are good in general and it's just probably not my thing. So if you are into beef cheeks - you might really like them. If you're not, it's probably an acquired taste. The local grains had hominy in them, which I really like, so that almost balanced out my disdain for the meat.
We had the smores - and I think everyone else liked them - for me I could pass. I'm not a huge dessert fan, but the last time I was at a restaurant I saw a smore and thought that I really missed out on it. This time.. not so much. The crisphy cinnamon tortillas with the "goo" in a cast iron skillet (read: some sort of cocoa mixture with the marshmallows on the top) weren't my favorite. Some regular chocolate would have been better - not something that resembled syrup that didn't taste as good. Or - fudge - or something.
Long story short - I think the view was great, I'm not sure that I would be back.
