Why would you mess with your signature dish?
Franklin Cafe的点评
点评：The Franklin on Shawmut has been one of the best kept secrets, or hidden gems, that I can think of. Small, intimate, a neighborhood type place for late night food after being out at clubs or shows, it's been my go-to place for over a decade. Their mussels are legendary (I literally dream about them, and tell everyone I know that the way they prepare them is unmatched), and their steak frites is perfection too.
So imagine my disappointment when I brought several friends there recently "just to try the mussels" and what was brought out to us was NOT the mussels that are (in many people's opinion) their signature dish, but some "new" variation that were just awful. Covered in onion, in a weak, brothy sauce, they were flabby and terrible.
My question to the Franklin is this -- why oh why would you mess with your signature dish and lose customers? I asked the wait staff to ask the kitchen to please just make myself and my guests the mussels they've excelled at and that are salty, smokey, buttery and amazing and I was told "it's not on the menu." Really?
After over a decade of many amazing experiences, even a few New Years Eve's, I won't be going back. We literally went there for those mussels, prepared simply and perfectly. The end of an era.

翻译：肖穆特街上的富兰克林 (Franklin) 是我能想到的保守得最好的秘密或隐藏的宝石之一。这家小巧、私密的社区式餐厅是夜店或演出结束后享用深夜美食的好去处，十多年来，它一直是我最常去的地方。他们的贻贝非常有名（我真的梦见过它们，并告诉我认识的每个人，他们烹饪贻贝的方式无与伦比），他们的牛排薯条也很完美。
所以，想象一下，当我最近带几个朋友去那里“只是为了尝尝贻贝”时，我有多失望，他们端给我们的不是（在很多人看来）他们的招牌菜贻贝，而是一些“新”的变种，味道很糟糕。它们上面覆盖着洋葱，淋着淡而无味的肉汤酱，软塌塌的，味道很糟糕。
我想问富兰克林的是——为什么你们要搞砸你的招牌菜，失去顾客？我让服务员让厨房为我和我的客人做他们擅长的贻贝，咸味、烟熏味、黄油味和美味，他们告诉我“菜单上没有”。真的吗？
经过十多年的许多奇妙经历，甚至几次除夕夜，我不会再回去了。我们真的去那里是为了那些贻贝，烹饪简单而完美。一个时代的结束。
