Parents treated me here for my birthday, so I splurged a bit and started the meal with the Sticky Pig. Tasty and always happy to try a new cocktail, especially one with ginger beer, but not good enough to tempt me away from my dark and stormy.
For appetizers, we tried the beet salad and the pork belly. The pork belly was definitely as tasty as promised and the beet salad was a nice pairing. 10/10, would pair again!
For my entree, I had the foie sausage. Very good! But the lentils and squash it came with were kind of meh. I would have MUCH rather had the pumpkin broth that came with my mom's pork cutlets. Dad had the special, the pork shank, and it really was fall off the bone tender! We took home leftovers and considered using the bone for soup--that good!
Overall, I had a great evening but wasn't wowed partially because of the food pairings. That said, I plan to come back and try the bahn mi and the happy hour specials!
