Two of my favorite soups - the white gazpacho (ajo blanco?) and the sopa de pescado - are no longer on the menu. And jaleo hour with its great bargains is a thing of the past - at least downtown.

Couple of new items that are noteworthy: The sea urchin and butter on top of cristal bread is pure decadence at its most creamy. And the mini HAMburguesa - kind of a slider with piquillo peppers and porcine meat - is memorable as well. And the construction smell is gone.

Stopped by yesterday and wow. Felt like I was in a Jetsons episode. Recapte was good. A few prices looked a bit higher, but the same crew seemed as eager to please as ever. The construction smell needs to be aired out a bit. I'll be as regular as I ever was.

My favorite jose andres restaurant time is Saturday or Sunday when an additional four or five brunch items are available. Wonderful stuff.

Had the Jersey Shore and octopus last Friday at the bar for lunch and the White House and sweet corn agnolotti today. No problem at all finishing the pasta. Didn't find it cloying at all. Don't understand the meh reviews on the Jersey Shore. But MacQuaid made the Jersey Shore last week. Didn't see him today. Is he still working here?

Shack burger with onion was delectable. FAR from overcooked. I prefer this to Five Guys. I'd like to try it animal-style.

Went on Wednesday and looked over at the oven for MacQuaid. When I didn't see him, my enthusiasm waned. WRONG. Everything was great. Char was just right. And if anybody making decisions is reading this, please make the onion and anchovy crostini part of the regular menu. Simple perfection.

This is a great post. I love Terroirs and it's nice to see that Mr. Henderson seems to as well.

They need to get a cask conditioned ale. Could not agree more. Stopped in a couple of weeks ago and had bangers and mash, fish and chips, and chicken curry that were all outstanding. tonight i switched up the bangers and mash for the shepherd's pie and was highly disappointed. Terribly oversalted it was. The curry and chips on my companions' plates were as good as they were a couple of weeks ago, however. I'm going to assume that somebody dropped the saltshaker in the pie by accident. Definitely going back.

Mineo's with spinach and pepperoni is pretty darn satisfying.

Well put. Very happy to have flippin and orso in fc

Pemberton is doing great stuff. Should have added that. Also should have added that we feel that the bar is the way to do st. John. Incredible value and unpretentious. Ever been to launceton place? Now that's pretentious.

St. John Anchor and Hope Harwood Arms All of the above for the best in what is British food. Fantastic stuff. Taza on Queensway for Falafel And Bill Oglethorpe's sandwich at Borough Market - if you've made it to the Market, you have to try it.
