| - Saturday night at 7pm
we thought it was going to be packed with long line up, surprisingly it was half empty but got full quickly, so we were just lucky. there were only 2 of us, so we ordered:
1. bone marrow - was good but not orgasmic as someone else described... the green sauce/side came with it was tasty. bone marrow is oily, which went well with the bread (btw, burnt bread)
2. spicy horse tartare - our favorite dish, at first sight, my bf said, "where is the horse", then we found them underneath the fried potato sticks. interesting flavours makes up for the lack of portion. btw, server was embarrased about serving horse meat when inquired regarding where is the meat from. she shouldn't be.
3. tongue on brioche - we thought we need to hit another restaurant before going home, howerver the tongue was more than filling for both of us. the meat was the tender version of ham, reminds me nothing of tongue. it came almost like Montreal Smoked Meat sandwich. a bit on the salty side. the mustard seeds were overwhelming... don't put too much.
4. gin blossom - grapefruit juice + gin, it was so fresh that i actually tasted some pulp...
service - more than what we expected. the lady was friendly and quick on service. they don't wait for you to ask.
it would definitely make a great place for group hangout, but try to come in even numbers to avoid embarassing sitting arrangment!
