So.... went to lunch yesterday. It was not good. The food itself was OK, but the desserts were generic. Like they came off of the Sysco truck. I was pretty irritated. Not only that but the server seemed like she just was not on top of her game. I had to tell her things more than once, and when I was ready to go she took her damn time bringing the check.
Now once the check came I was caught off guard: it was presented in a paperback book. Frankly, I thought she was just an airhead and ran out of check presenters. Only later did I find out it was done on purpose, apparently there are places in NYC doing that. I think maybe I would have gotten it but the whole atmosphere was just confusing to me. Like there wasn't a clear message.
The quiche was pretty damn good though- except the crust was burned AND falling off. And I like the crust! Oh well.
Things went better today. Went to Briandi's finally, as I keep hearing good stuff about them. Not only was MY sandwich good, and the service top notch, but even Bishop's child's grilled cheese was good. :) Probably the best grilled cheese I had! and they didn't try to use fancy cheese, it was American cheese, but somehow they managed to keep the consistency of the cheese perfectly creamy. I will be going back.
Meanwhile, it's Cherry Blossom time. I don't really have a problem with Cherry Blossom but I must say I got to see the founder of Cherry Blossom really show her you know what one time and it really put a bad taste in my mouth for anything she was associated with.
