Wow, just wow. You know you've had an amazing meal when you are still thinking about it months later. It's not often that I make my way over to Davidson, but my mister treated me to dinner at Kindred for my birthday. Kindred is perfect for a special meal but still casual. We dined upstairs which made for fun people watching of the street below.
We ended up ordering a total of 7 dishes plus dessert and drinks which was more than ample for two people. I'm with the other reviewers who have sang the praises of the milk bread. Absolute carby perfection right there. Other memorable highlights included the crab salad which tasted as good as it looked. The citrus in it paired really nicely. I also had the trout, which how often do you get excited about a fish dish, but the use of harissa and other spices was again perfection. My drink of choice was a pisco sour that was served in a sweet dainty cup. We ended our meal with the birthday cake, which was kindly comped for my birthday. The frosting on the cake was killer good.
