| rev:text | 	We went during Zack Bruell's restaurant week.  Although I usually don't always like the restaurant week menu, and would rather try traditional menu offerings, I found my arm being very twisted to try the $30 prix fixe menu.   Our server was very talented at making each entree yummy and delicious and you know what?  He was spot on.  I started with the winter garden salad with blood orange vinaigrette and pistachios.  Perfect.  A wonderful mix.  Each flavor complemented the next and they went very well together.  Course two: I selected the Farro, winter vegetables and braised greens.  I was very satisfied with this mix.  It was a hearty grain mixture, and although I usually enjoy a hefty meat, I opted for this since I had veal and pork the night before.  I was not displeased.  It was flavored absolutely perfectly.  For dessert I tired the creme caramel.  What a delight to the palate!  My friend always guesses which drink I'll order, because she knows I love bourbon.  I opted for a drink with bourbon and orange bitters and I forget what else.  And I forget the name (but it was clever!) and it was yummy.  You can see this drink displayed in my current profile photo.  Wait!  "Fashionably Late"!  That was the name of the drink.  My friend Emmalyn enjoyed her meal immensely.  She had some sort of fish and the salad with radishes.  Both were excellent.  The original dessert we had sought out on the menu was a souffle made with grand marnier, but they had changed it up, so she opted for the cheesecake instead.  It proved to be a good second choice.  The ambiance was very cute.  The service was great.  I did not, however, enjoy the people begging for money outside.  I would absolutely return here again and perhaps try the short ribs.  I saw them on the table of the couple next to me and they looked phenomenal.  This being my second restaurant in the Zack Bruell group that I heavily enjoyed, I would have to say, Bruell is pretty much awesome. |
