My mood is sour since my entire post got deleted in one button, seriously what is wrong? The guy manning the coat check area should be an actor, and I mean in A+ films. He could be the sidekick to Captain America, that's right he was that gorgeous. My boyfriend could care less. I liked how our waitress was professional and prompt. Sometimes waiters/waitresses try to make conversation when they suck at it, this one knew when to intercept and when to step back. Good job.
Food
I think I was very lucky or that Nota Bene was THAT GOOD. The clam chowder was a surprise since it didn't come out chunky and thick - on the contrary it's super smooth and presents like a broth. Even though we are drinking something that isn't pureed, all the flavours are present and it was excellent. The entree was HEAVEN. The table beside us ordered the same dish and devoured everything, leaving only bits behind. This is SERIOUSLY one of the best pastas I've had (the bolognese, which I don't see on the menu anymore!). Super moist pasta (not to mention smooth and thin), sauce is on point, the meat was super yummy, and it was damn filling. I can't describe to you how amazing this dish was. Go ahead, order it and disagree with me. I was quite worried that the dessert would disappoint but holy cow it surpassed my expectations. The crunchiness of the apple crumble - YES! Most Winterlicious meals leave me regretting I ever spent $45 or whatever but Nota Bene won me over. My boyfriend's dishes weren't bad as well but I think I ordered the winning combination.
