A couple of nights ago a close friend and I headed over to blink for a quiet meal before heading out dancing.
I found the atmosphere to be quite cozy and welcoming. I loved the fact that we were greeted as we came in and I thought the 'Chef's Table' featuring the daily specials was a very nice touch.
Our server was nothing short of professional and I was impressed by the menu as it offered its own vegetarian section. I opted to order the 'Saute of Polenta' which was excellent and my date ordered the halibut which he thoroughly enjoyed. The prices were steep ($17 for my meal, $33 for his) however I was happy to find out that Blink uses only the freshest ingredients, which all happen to be locally-grown. So not only were we enjoying a meal, but we were supporting the local market as well - win/win situation!
Blink is definitely the kind of place you'd head to for a romantic evening out, or somewhere you'd go to have sparkling conversation with a good friend. it's the kind of place where intimate conversation is possible and it is the perfect prelude dinner spot before going off elsewhere to dance the night away.
