| - Brunch. Brunch. Brunch. Go for brunch! You won't regret it!
You know when you sit down at a restaurant and have mild anxiety because everything on the menu looks amazing?!?! Welcome to my black pig struggle.
We started with the mimosa pitcher. Yeah- the two of us were feeling feisty. Anyway, that pitcher was $12 and was a bargain! The carafe held five solid mimosas. I mean, the math alone suggests the craziness of it all... $2.40 for each mimosa? I like this place already! (For the record, if you got an individual mimosa, it was $6. Just put on your drinking pants, find a DD, get the pitcher.)
Food.... My mouth is watering just thinking about it! We got the short rib hash, the omelette special of the day, and a side of bacon. The short rib has was so amazing... So savory! The short ribs were lightened up by the red pepper relish, which in Erick's opinion, totally made the dish! The omelette special was filled with chicken confit, kale and goat cheese- the chicken confit was just amazing. Oh and the bacon was tasty- maple glazed- I love me that sweet and salty!
So because we hadn't polished off our mimosas after choking down, we decided to get dessert. Pistachio cake accompanied by pistachio ice cream and lemon curd. Good god man! It was excellent. Oh- and there was also pistachio brittle on the plate. The brittle was surprisingly salty and added a nice crunch. I got coffee with the dessert, which was a mistake. The coffee was old and cold. Yuck!
Finally, I should mention the Service throughout the meal was solid. I know they have a private room in the back of the joint for parties.... If you're into parties.
Black pig, I will be back again- Definitely to try out the rest of the brunch menu, but also maybe for dinner! I wonder if they have the same mimosa special at dinner... Hmmm...
