great writeup AGM, nothing more to add. unless I think of something. I'd go back for the beets. If they changed the menu (I hear, monthly? I'd consider going back to give them one more chance but overall it was rather bland. you could tell it was quite good quality food, but there was something missing. maybe as simple as salt. not sure.
the post-prandial sauterne was quite good.
I noted to a friend of mine the next day... the three of us had gone to Corduroy a few weeks prior. The differences in the food could actually even be noted in the DECOR of either place. Viridian - spare, simple, clean, nothing to hide. Corduroy - richer, more texture. I'd go back to Corduroy again and again, in a heartbeat.
the Q now is, AGM - did you review our night out at Notte Bianche? I hope not all of it.
