Vera's Kitchen的点评
点评:Pretty little restaurant, beautiful copper top table. Warmly greeted by Ms. Vera. My daughter was in the mood for hummus and this was the closest place to us at the time that served hummus.
The hummus and Ethiopian chips were great! Not the typical chickpea tahini lemon hummus but a lentil hummus with a spice that reminded me of mustard.
Next we got the trio (sampler) platter and left Chef Vera to decide among the entrees.
The coffee was good. Reminded me a bit like Turkish coffee, tiny cups, strong with sediment.
They were out of fruit so we couldn't try juice. The ice water was nice and had mint sprig.
And lastly I ordered what I thought might be a chilled chickpea salad with diced tomato, pepper, onion and a fresh herb sprig. It was heated and still yummy.
We took home a lot of food which will be dinner tomorrow as we don't have room for dinner tonight after lunch at Vera's.
It's near the courthouse.
Our total bill including tip was $78, a bit pricey for lunch but it will also be dinner tomorrow.
Only suggestion would be not to tear into the misguided FedEx delivery guy. We felt bad for him. He may have had an ID and didn't know not to march into the kitchen with armload of boxes meant for a different recipient. He wont ever do that again, so maybe you saved someone else from getting even madder at a different restaurant.
翻译:漂亮的小餐厅,漂亮的铜质桌面。Vera 女士热情地接待了我们。我女儿想吃鹰嘴豆泥,当时这家店是离我们最近供应鹰嘴豆泥的地方。
鹰嘴豆泥和埃塞俄比亚薯条太棒了!不是那种典型的鹰嘴豆芝麻酱柠檬鹰嘴豆泥,而是扁豆鹰嘴豆泥,香料的味道让我想起了芥末。
接下来我们点了三拼盘(样品),让 Vera 主厨自己在主菜中挑选。
咖啡不错。有点像土耳其咖啡,小杯装,味道浓烈,有沉淀物。
他们没有水果,所以我们没法喝果汁。冰水很不错,还有薄荷枝。
最后,我点了一份冰镇鹰嘴豆沙拉,里面有番茄丁、辣椒、洋葱和一根新鲜的香草枝。虽然加热了,但味道依然鲜美。
我们打包了很多食物回家,因为今晚在Vera's吃完午饭后就没肚子吃了,所以就当做明天的晚餐。
这家餐厅离法院很近。
我们一共花了78美元(包括小费),作为午餐来说有点贵,但明天也算是晚餐了。
唯一的建议是,不要责怪那个被误导的联邦快递送货员。我们为他感到难过。他可能有身份证,却不知道不应该抱着一堆原本要送给别人的盒子走进厨房。他以后再也不会这样做了,所以也许你救了别人一命,免得在另一家餐厅更生气。
