I try to avoid celebrity chef restaurants, and this one isn't very different. You lose the soul of the chef when he's not there in favor of more watered-down dishes that a team of anybody can produce in his place. The menu was pretty standard with the kind of dishes you'd pretty much expect at any white tablecloth restaurant, but executed well. The real interesting plates are all on the appetizer menu. If I am able to go back someday I'll only order off the appetizer menu. I still think about the fried pig ears I had there and try to imagine how I can make them at home.
