It’s OK.
(But if she has internet access, OpenTable says Kali is wide open next month, and then you’d be busted.)

I only want it if it’s infused with THC. Otherwise, it’s false advertising.
Mama got a Raise and Papa got a Pepper Steak.

It was… not bad.
Pepper Steak - Ribeye Cap, Bacon, Green Garlic
This is one delicious piece of beef - naturally beefy, tender, good chew w/marbled ribeye richness, bacon adding to the wood smokiness, not overpowering, not too salty or too greasy, combined w/the green garlic, all cooked over the grill and topped w/a generous amount of cracked black pepper, so flavorful. I personally liked it way more than their dry-aged bone-in Bistecca Costata (ny steak).
Chicken Pot Pie @PorkyBelly!
I am sorry to say that it was prettier than it tasted. It has a good crust, tender dark & white meat, very good flavors. I didn’t even get angry about the hint of tarragon. “It’s traditional.” My complaint is “Nancy insisted on not only top crust but bottom crust too. She likes a squidgy bottom”. I’ll give her a squidgy bottom. Just kiddin’. It was actually really good like the dumplings in chicken & dumplings. But it also absorbed all the nice, silky chicken gravy that I love in pot pie. Instead of chicken and vegetables bathed in sauce everything was kinda’ starchy & thick. Oh and it had at least one whole garlic clove that wasn’t completely soft enough to smash and mix. The carrots were delicious.
We did exactly what I predicted - stopped by on the way home from work without a resy before the dinner rush and had a delightful no-stress meal. Celebrity sighting - Joe Rogan of UFC fame. I tried to be sly and take a faux selfie to get a snap of him to impress my boys. But I never take selfies and it resulted in three photos of my chin.
Happy Eating!

Should’ve said, “Oh yea? But Nancy ain’t paying for my meal so do it how I want it!”

Yeah!
I’m so saddened by that pie. It looks like my dream pie.
I can’t even with pot pies that lack a bottom crust. Like, what are we even calling this a pie for, people, if there isn’t a bottom? Maybe because chicken cobbler sounds gross, I guess.
But if the pie was starchy and dry then that’s sadness pie. It’s also for sure an execution error. My pies are always full of rich sauce and I always use a bottom crust. The bottom crust can’t absorb that much moisture. #givebottomcrustsasecondchance

Chicken Cobbler. 
Yep, you’re right. A good pie (top & bottom crust) does indeed hold liquid filling without it getting thick & clumpy. But now I know why a lot of chicken pot pies only have the top. Maybe the flour in the gravy makes it hard to stay liquid with a bottom crust. I’m not a baker though and can only guess.

Shit, i felt the same way about the chicken pot pie but was too lazy to write it up. And what’s even worse is i paid $50 for it instead of the current price of $37. #teambeefandbonemarrowpie
@TheCookie, next give the delicious polla alla diavola su crostone a try.
Other things I got that night:
cetera anchovy & butter
Surprisingly balanced. Underrated highlight.
spacca culatello, burrata
Delicious
little gem, sieved egg, bacon vinaigrette, herbed breadcrumbs
Pretty good but a bit heavy on the bacon and dressing. I prefer the caesar.
chicken pot pie
A bit starchy and the white meat pieces were a little dry. The carrots were delicious, but I wish there were more veggies inside the pie itself.

In what world does a chicken pot pie cost $50?? Are there truffles inside? It doesn’t even look that big.
