OK, the weather is bad, just want a place with good air conditioning to a have a relaxing lunch. Previously had drinks outdoor, now finally giving it a try for lunch.We did not have any particular expectations since it was our first lunch visit. Some items on the menu looked interesting, such as the French Rabbit, however, thought this was too complex for a Saturday lunch. We settled on the following:
First, wanted to give the "Louisiana Chili Crab Cakes" a go. A bit on the small side, but the taste more than made up for it. Quite a bit of chunky crab meats inside a moist and nicely pan fried patties. Surprisingly it was not at all spicy, don't let the "Chili" in the name fool you, but the meaty crabs was quite tasty.
The "Warm Mushroom & Baby Asparagus Salad" was nicely done. The large grilled Potabello mushroom was nicely grilled, the Asparagus was sweet and tender, but the dressing used was the highlight, it was refreshingly light and tangy. The dressing blended very well with all the veggies.
Finally, ordered the "Duck Confit Tagliatelle", the pasta was al dente but a bit on the bland side. The Duck Confit was shereded and mixed in with the pasta, top with ripe cherry tomatoes (nicely peeled). When it arrived, it didn't look too apealing at first sight, however once we dug in, it was all right, not great and not bad, just not too much too talk about.
Since it was Saturday, had time, decided to had out to another place for dessert and coffee.
