So I guess this is a new place that opened at some point this month. I heard about it through some foodie co-workers who scoped it out a few days ago.
We popped in around 12:15pm, and they weren’t too busy, which was nice. A short walk from the office and nestled in the heart of Strip Club Central. It was kind of reminiscent of Bakesale Betty (which I have YET to try!!!) or Gregoire, since the restaurant was nondescript and minimalist, and the menu was scrawled on the wall in chalk. There’s no seating indoor or outdoor, but patrons are welcome to eat at Enrico’s patio next door. And with the weather as awesome as it was, that was not a bad option!
They were out of the foie gras & prosciutto sandwich, which didn’t really affect me, but given that they ran out of their $15 sandwiches that don’t even come with sides or a drink… Yeah, that’s pretty significant, right? They ordered the kobe beef sandwiches ($10) and pepper soup ($5); I heard the kobe was great and the pepper was so-so. I went for the shrimp sandwich ($9), which was quite good. The cool, saucy shrimp was perfect for the warm day, but the bread could’ve been toastier.
I only hope that this is one of those places that changes its menu with the seasons.
