Carrots three ways, roasted, fermented, and ? I forget. Get the focaccia to sop up the sauce.
Other highlights were spicy head-on shrimp (I’m a really hard sell on shrimp), celery salad, pasta with miso butter, lamb tartare, tiramisu with mascarpone made in house from Alexandre milk, Gorgonzola with savory chocolate shortbread, soppressata aka headcheese … I wish I’d taken more notes or photos. Check their Instagram feed for hours, It was Thurs.-Sun. from 4 pm but they’re planning to add another day.
Beef short rib pithivier with greens and I forget what. Delicious but insanely rich, I took around half home. More recently they were doing a version with mushrooms, gruyere, and smoked Dijon which sounds lighter.
Or at least I thought I was getting full until the fried rice came out. Almost finished it, would have if there’d been more rice, took some of the sausage home.
Radish cake, caramelized rutabaga, beet gel, braised shitake: good though nothing like the Chinese dish I was imagining. The radish cake was fried crunchy and the texture was more like mashed potatoes.
