Had this tonight:

- Lemon dusted veal sweetbreads simmered in "vin jaune" with chestnuts and roasted heirloom cauliflower.
- Chocolate tart, chocolate cremieaux and chocolate sorbet.
- A lovely cocktail with George Dickel No. 12, lemon, maple syrup and mint leaves.
- Six Points Paul Saison Farmhouse Ale. (More than one)
- Michter's Small Batch Bourbon.
- Bulleit Bourbon.

Nice!
Everything sounds sensational except for the sweetbreads.
Otherwise perfection!!
HAPPY TUESDAY!!!
sounds like you ate well...nothing like an exceptional meal with a few exceptional beers. Is that the museum? I didn't know they had a high end eatery
Yum!
I am jealous.
Michelle - The sweetbreads were delicious!
2abes - Opened up last year, I believe. Danny Meyer's newest restaurant in the city. Well, not including the new Shake Shack locations uptown and in Citi Field.
Sybil - It was a meal worthy of envy.
My tummy is jealous of your tummy.
Sounds awesome.
Hilly - it was the taste buds that had the real party. ;)
Walter - Heya! It was.
Sounds expensive !
i have no comment except to say that right now i am sitting in a training course and am supposed to be listening to the instructor...
im a baaaad boy..
Heff - it wasn't cheap. And we took a car service in and out of the city. Every once in a while, however, a splurge is needed.
Slyde - At this point in your life, what could you possibly learn from a training course? I mean, you're oooolllldddd.
Actually, I probably won't go there. Not only is it 3000 miles from anyplace I would go, I would be extremely uncomfortable in an establishment such as that. Then I'd start making fun of the people, and I'd get thrown out.
You just can't take me anywhere . . .
The drinks sounded awesome, though.
Geez that sounds like a place I would like to go to...
I don't really want to pay for it though
Callie - we made fun of everyone, and we didn't get thrown out. Mostly because we are awesome!
Ookami - Gia paid for most of it, actually. We were taking her mother out for Mother's Day and her Birthday. I basically chipped in for my meal.
SHUT THE HELL UP EARL!
envious here, greeeeeeeeeeeeeeenn
envy. grrrr....
well, at least I get to hear about it. and yes, oh yes, someday, I shall eat a meal like this.
also, i had stuff to stay aobut your white stripes post. too tired/lazy but I will go to the trouble if you can figure out the connection between the white stripes and my email address. it is a seven degrees of separation thing.
but i bet you can't figure it out. what we 7 drinks still sloshing your brain.
greeeeen!!!!!!!
Holly - Butcher Holler is the "hometown" (it's not really a town, but whatever) of Loretta Lynn. Jack White, of the White Stripes, produced an album of hers in 2004.
What do I win?
again i say to you, is there no trivia that grrrrrrr you don't automatically get.
smarty smart pants.
grrrr :)
Ahhh, to be one of the lucky few who live in civilized society. I'm jealous.
Holly - maybe I just googled it, hmmm? Nah! ;)
Faiqa - Central Florida isn't civilized? (That's where you live, right?)
