| - We splurged and decided to try Graze after wandering around the square in search of somewhere to eat on Saturday night. It was a 15 minute wait to eat outside, but we sat down immediately inside -- really exciting, as I was ravenous.
Our waitress brought water right away, and returned shortly to ask about drinks. They have a variety of options, which of course completely overwhelmed me, but I went with a ginger martini and my friend with a beer (both pretty reasonably priced). They have wine on tap, which is interesting -- I'll definitely try that next time.
My friend got the Graze burger and fries, and I got macaroni and cheese with pulled pork. Pulled pork usually doesn't do it for me, but I branched out and tried it. Usually, after awhile, every plate of food coming towards our table gets my hungry hopes up as I wonder where my food is; at Graze, our food came before I even started looking for it. The dish small (expected, as it is an appetizer), but perfectly filling. Made with Hooks 10 year cheddar, the noodles were covered in liquidy cheesy goodness. With the tender pulled pork on top, it was very hard not to inhale it. I love cheese, and you could tell that it was really good cheese. One thing -- it was slightly, just a little bit, maybe too salty. I don't know if it came from the meat or the cheese, and it didn't stop me from eating every last noodle, but it did cross my mind.
We didn't get dessert (unfortunately), but our waitress did not make us feel rushed in any way. As a waitress, I know table-lingerers suck, especially when the bill isn't very expensive. She just refilled our waters and smiled.
I love the big windows and the bar area.
