tried it yet? I'm highly interested, but I've heard very mixed
reviews thus far.    1. Click to Upload a photo (10 MB limit)
1. we tried it Saturday evening and thought it was quite good.
we sat at the bar, had a couple rounds of craft cocktails (the
Chameleon with its smoked salt was quite good) and several
plates. the sweet potato croquette were good, the mussels in
Stilton broth were excellent. the bacon stew was good, as was
the quartered chicken leg main. the "banana Sunday" dessert was
excellent -- a plantain with chocolate ganache, candied/toffee
pecans and a dollop of vanilla bean ice cream.      only
complaint -- the poached egg on the chicken dish was under
cooked and runny. note to chefs: if your poached egg jiggles
like wet jello, you didn't do it right. up the temperature on
the sous-vide. it is also pretty loud, as the cavernous space
and concrete floor means echo.      a most welcome addition to
the neighborhood. more local destina
