Heather Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 What would we all think if you went to the same place twice in one week? The horror! I have a hankering for the pan roasted wild mushroom salad at CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdt Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I'd be on the early side.How about Circle Bistro? We have a dinner res there tonight, so a drink or two before dinner works for me. Any recs on what to get? (Although I will read the CB thread). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banco Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Does Sonoma have steak tartare? Unfortunately, no. Or at least not yet. (Drew??). But they do have lots of wine and booze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I have mentioned upthread, the wild mushroom salad. It's delicious. I'll be there by 5:30. Hopefully with a martini in hand.

Hannah Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Unfortunately, no. Or at least not yet. (Drew??). But they do have lots of wine and booze. No tartare, but the venison carpaccio works on those must-have-raw-meat-NOW kinds of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bookluvingbabe Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I tried and failed to work in a visit on Friday using the old "we'll go if there's a parking space out frount" ploy with my husband. Alas, it was 7 by the time we drove past and not a parking space in sight--or a seat from the looks of the place. Toyed with going on Saturday early during the Redskins came but cooked instead. Wondering if I can fit a trip in tonight or tomorrow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonRocks Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 I just saw Mr. Monis at Greenberry's, looking a bit haggard and quite sexy I might add, and he confirms this hope for Tuesday--not that I am a reliable source for dates of openings. In all seriousness, are you sure it wasn't me you just saw at Greenberry's, looking more-than-a-bit haggard and not-quite-so sexy as Johnny Makes-Us-Moan? Considering I ran into him at yet another restaurant earlier this week, this is becoming troubling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escoffier Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 (edited) I (and my two usual dining companions...okay, one is my wife) will be at Majestic Cafe next Saturday night for our usual Saturday night out nosh...if you'd like to join us, we tend to eat dinner rather early (around 6:30 or so) so that we have time to do other things afterwards..>(digest good food, let the wine do it's work)...either ask Joe the Maitre'd or any of the waitstaff for Ken, Mark and Yoon-Hee or look for the white guy, the black guy and the Asian lady...(her description, not mine). PS: we're usually either at table 27 (right by the kitchen) or one of the booths...we prefer table 27 because we can watch the house.

JLK Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Has anyone made reservations for Komi post-reopening? I'm dying to get back in there, but I think I'll have to wait a few weeks. Cash-poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Gastreaux Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I could not take Friday (Lee-Jackson Day here in Virginia) off and now I need to find a special place to celebrate the Glory of the Confederacy and Her First Sons and Her Fallen Heroes. Any recommendations for a restaurant that captures the special spirit and beliefs of the time, perhaps with a special tasting menu and post-prandial wood-shed recreations? Of course, I am trying to avoid any "non-native" restaurants. Another thing--I am looking for Monday, which is the only night I have free, so I am hoping to avoid any reminder of that "other" day, so cleverly and deviously timed to interfere with our Day of Honor. Thanks! The Dixie Pig would have been perfect, but there is now a CVS where it used to be. But could I suggest the Crystal City Restaurant instead?
