| - I went to the Greenhouse Tavern soon after seeing the Iron Chef episode that pitted Geoffrey Zakarian against Jonathon Sawyer, the chef of the restaurant.
They have a house-made club soda that's actually really good and I highly recommend it. My friend and I both got the Devils on Horseback for "Firsts," which are basically dates wrapped in bacon with almonds, chocolate, and fresno pepper. They were the perfect balance of flavors! We skipped the "Seconds" and went straight to the "Thirds," when I ordered the Pig Head (weird, I know, but I was feeling adventurous). It was totally worth it, too! I definitely, definitely recommend trying this dish. It was perfectly roasted and seasoned. My friend got the Fried Flintstone Beef Short Rib, which he reported was really good too. For dessert we had Buttered Popcorn Pot de Creme, which is basically just really salty and caramel-y popcorn. While highly unhealthy, it was absolutely delicious.
Seriously, go to the Greenhouse Tavern. You will not be disappointed.
