We had our eye on this place for months. Just think, a restaurant that offers quality beers, wines, and top notch food, but all at a reasonable price. Oh, yeah, and don't forget you are in the middle of Midtown's boom at 14th and Peachtree, at the bottom of the Symphony Tower 1180 Building.
Under a clear night sky and sitting 10 feet from a bustling Peachtree Street, we had a great meal.
The appetizers were wonderful little plates consisting of crispy chickpeas with Old Bay seasoning, pickled root bowl consisting of brine-y beets, taro and brussel sprouts, and a pair of toasts topped with chocolate, EVOO, and chorizo. From Eric and Chang's testimony, this was the most amazing bruschetta ever.For entrees, I had the braised veal sweetbreads, slow stewed in a thick chanterelle sauce atop creamy grits paired with a Central Coast pinot blac. Eric had the sirloin salad with crispy chunky bits of bacon, golden yukon potatoes, crisp greens, and an egg, which was paired with a gingered beer cask-conditioned ale. And Chang had a fennel salad, which she said was fitting for a warm evening. Desserts were something to be desired, and next time, I think we would just rather take on another course of beers and appetizers.
Note to self: make sure to load a memory card in the dang camera before departing the house. Sorry, all I got is a web picture of the building, folks.
