The devilled eggs @ $2.5 apiece sound better than they taste, with smoked trout and lobster not given a chance to shine. Devils on horseback offer an app that everyone does now - dates stuffed with chorizo and wrapped with bacon - but the mix of sweet and salty and chewy and crisp still works well. \n\nI can't quarrel with the selection of artisanal cheeses and smoked meats, but the accompanying fruit is a joke with two tiny slivers of apple. Why not provide a magnifying glass some can find it? The apple or fruit should counterbalance the rich flavors of the cheese, but 2 slIvers of fruit doesn't do it. \n\nI think the presentation is a shade better than the flavors, but it's still a welcome oasis in the wilds of Hudson."^^ .
