| - really? I gotta follow that review about "a life incomplete"? for the love of.... well, while I am not quite the wordsmith that Matthew M. is, I am still going to offer my own simple perspective on one of my favorite places in town ;o)
Bar Cento has quickly become my cheap(-er than Greenhouse Tavern) place to go to relax, have great food and amazing beer. When you come here, be prepared to be amazed when you finally hunt down that beer you've been wanting to try for weeks (Dogfish Head's Bitches Brew) or when you find several beers you actually enjoy drinking (even though you don't really like beer all that much, lol).
Their pomme frites are the best I've had since actually being in Belgium! Done traditional Belgian style and served with four different dipping sauces...I still haven't decided which one I like the best. Their pizza is solid and I must say that their Antipasti is one of the best in the city for it's price. The Big Board is the one you want to go for, the samplings of meat and cheese are out of this world. I've had much, much worse for the same price, a sad little plate filled mainly with something akin to Ritz crackers, but we shall not talk about that tragedy....
Been here several times and even though Bier Markt is right next door, I've always found myself on the Bar Cento side of things. The bartenders are friendly and obviously love their jobs, especially when they are extolling the virtues of a new brew to their customers. One day I will make it downstairs to Speakeasy, but for now, I am happy with my Frites et la biere....
