  • Light your palate! As I approached Light from the sidewalk of Bridge I was very concerned. It did not seem like the posh locale everyone had said it was but it was too late as I was going on a first date (I thought it was too fancy but this guy wanted to show off his bucks so whatever). As I was taken to our table I was still concerned. . . exposed brick with mirrors not much Light at all. We were seated and I began to feel more at ease. The wine list was good (not great good though). As it is a rather small space you are almost always seated very close to other patrons, my date did not seem to care and started telling stories about his first roommate in college's sexual escapades which was totally mortifying but thankfully the group sitting next to us spoke only francais so I doubt they comprehended much of what he spoke of. If you desire to converse about sexual escapades of any kind you may want to go to Lola you'll have more room between you and the next group of patrons. But I digress our server was phenomenal he was knowledgeable of the menu, wine, and of the ingredients most certainly a plus when presented with a food snob such as myself. We ordered 3 first course size plates and an entree to split. I was excited upon looking at the menu as there were some more adventurous choices on the menu than at the Flying Fig which tends to be my gold standard. We started with a tuna tartare wrapped in cucumber with a tangerine sauce. It was divine. The tuna was smooth as butter and there were sunflower seeds in it to give added texture and the sauce and cucumber wrap was just enough to balance the inherent spiciness of the tuna. My date at this point showed his true colors as he said "thats raw I won't eat it "and sent his half back without even trying it faux pas 2 I believe. Next came a quail stuffed with fresh apples with a squash puree. yum yum yum yum yum. Traditional and not too exiting but amazing regardless. Faux pas 3 for Mr Rico Suavee was his unwillingness to try anything but the protein. He had insisted that for the 3rd first course size portion we get the Kobe beef. There were much better things on the menu but its kobe beef its automatically amazing. Now this was a dish served with a twist the beef was served raw with a cooking stone. You cook it yourself as much or as little as you want. It was served with sweet sushi rice and a wasabi soy sauce very yummy. Faux pas 4 for RIco, he tried to cut into the cooking stone as if it were food. . . big shiny black food. All the while the server came between every course asked if we needed anything cleared plates and silver and gave more water. Now for the meat and potatoes of the meal so to speak. . . the entree. Ostrich with rhubarb risotto. The flavors mixed in the perfect combination of savory sweet and sour. All at once my palate felt more invigorated than ever before. The fireworks going on in my mouth nearly made me forget about the dexter with a boner I was dining with. The sorbet after dinner was nothing special. Homemade yes but nothing you can't get at any place that makes their own. Mine maybe not as it was passion fruit but the techniques used were the same as your standard sorbet. It wasn't too pricey especially as you walked out very satisfied about 100 for all the food and a bottle of wine. Now for my faux pas for the evening. Rico suave pays the bill and I see he gave a 10% tip. I took the folder from him and threw in an additional 20 because service like that deserves a good tip. Needless to say that was the first and last date for Rico Suave and I. Don't miss The local ingredients in every dish. Who ever knew ohio could make food that could be made into such a sexy dish Hit or miss. Seating you could end up listening more to the next tables conversation. Avoid like the plague Going there on a bad first date.
