I just had a good meal at Baco Mercat. I was in the mood for a lot of vegetables and the menu fits that.
Warm roasted cauliflower with lebne etc. ($14). Lovely. That’s a big serving spoon, not a teaspoon.
Salad of castelfranco, shaved asparagus, ninja radish, cheddar, and pine nuts ($13). Bracingly sharp dressing, balanced by the cheese and nuts.
Huge serving of duck confit ($28). Simple but good. Some of the same ingredients I had in a very different context at O&W last night.
With an appetizer that would have been plenty gor two. Very nice wines by the glass.
