点评:These days, one should be discerning when dining out. Sure, plenty of eateries are decent; but exceptional - especially when reasonably priced, is even better. For which we nominate 400 East. Strolling in upon opening recently, my wife and easily exhaled once inside. Because a woodsy interior with local art and a welcoming host does that. And on this raw day, home-made steaming chowder, rife with tender clam bits and small potato chunks, skin on, seemed essential; suddenly the day appeared brighter. But first, my wife chose a brimming French Martini, rocks nearby; one of the finest examples of this elusive libation in her judgement. And my Ruffino Chianti arrived tall and amply bodied with a signature tart finish. After relaxing some - which incidentally is something 400 East clearly encourages, my wife opted for the Filet of Fish sandwich; and if a fresher larger filet ever met a brioche bun, we ain't seen it; and we even shared it. Likewise, my Large Arugula Salad of pear slices, dollops of goat cheese, candied walnuts and sliced red onion atop a mound of arugula doused in exquisite dressing was perfect for sharing - while some even came home! And our server Ruby, attentive and warm, was all world. Fans of Boston Cream Pie, a special, came with whipped cream and drizzled in chocolate. Most should find this hefty cake a sweet close to share at any visit to this rustic comfy gem. Guests may also be keen on their generous Rewards offers.
翻译:如今,外出就餐时要有辨识度。当然,很多餐馆都不错;但特别 - 特别是价格合理时,甚至更好。为此,我们提名 400 East。最近在开业时漫步,我的妻子一进去就轻松地呼气。因为带有当地艺术的木质内饰和热情的主人做到了这一点。在这个天气恶劣的日子里,自制的热气腾腾的杂烩汤似乎必不可少,里面充满了嫩蛤蜊和带皮的小土豆块;天突然亮了起来。但首先,我的妻子在附近的岩石上选择了一杯浓郁的法国马提尼酒;在她的判断中,这是这种难以捉摸的奠酒的最好例子之一。我的 Ruffino Chianti 酒体高大,酒体丰满,余味带有标志性的酸味。在放松了一些之后——顺便说一句,这显然是 400 East 所鼓励的,我妻子选择了鱼片三明治;如果更新鲜的更大的菲力牛排遇到了奶油蛋卷面包,我们是看不到的;我们甚至分享了它。同样地,我的梨片大芝麻菜沙拉、山羊奶酪块、蜜饯核桃和红洋葱片放在一堆芝麻菜上,再浇上精致的调料,非常适合分享——有些甚至回家了!而我们的服务器 Ruby,细心而热情,无处不在。 Boston Cream Pie 的粉丝们特别推出了鲜奶油和巧克力。大多数人应该会发现,在任何参观这个质朴而舒适的宝石时,这个厚重的蛋糕都是一种甜蜜的分享。客人也可能热衷于他们慷慨的奖励优惠。
