After 3+ years living in Carnegie, my boyfriend and I finally made a trip to 131 East! We'd been saving it for a special occasion, and were super excited to try.
We stopped by around 6pm on a Friday evening. The downstairs bar & tables were full, so we were taken upstairs to a larger seating area. We ordered drinks and a poutine app to share to start. The poutine was rich and delicious! It was also the perfect size for two to share. A generous and filling portion.
For the main course, I got the duck pasta and my boyfriend ordered the chicken and grits. This was my own lack of attentiveness when ordering, but the duck pasta ended up tasting very similar to the poutine (thinking back on it, they had a lot of the same ingredients, just one had pasta and the other fries). However, I thought both dishes were delicious! I ended up packing some to go since the heaviness of the gravy and cheese got to be a bit much for me. The chicken and grits were very good as well as a generous serving. We opted out of dessert since we were too full, but are looking forward to another trip back soon!
