The chocolate flourless cake was lacking, and I only base this upon its name, flour as the sweet, crunchy, rich and downright tasty chocolate and peanut butter flavors capped off an amazing and incredibly necessary return to normalcy and food crafted with skill and love The Vietnamese chicken transports you from New Haven across the globe and the soy, ginger and garlic flavors tempt you to lick, or at least wipe down the plate with your finger. The hanger steak was cooked to perfection with the char having the most perfect crunch that was complemented by a zingy sauce all tied together by a cold potato salad that makes your grandma's potato salad with mayo look like an amateur attempt at a summer staple (no disrespect to grandma). The watermelon salad with Arethusa bleu cheese (quick aside, Arethusa farms chocolate milk is the best chocolate milk there is.anywhere.ever) was the perfect combo of sweet and savory. Duck nachos are ordered as you cannot go without ordering and if you don't order them, you're doing your palate and taste buds a huge disservice. The bread with pepper relish was brought to the table (more kick than normal, and I'm not mad at anyone about it). Water was poured, the obligatory tap or bottled was asked. We were warmly greeted and led to our table. All that being said, what was the most delectable part of the evening was the sense of normalcy, albeit with the servers wearing masks. The food was spectacular, our waitress was amazing (a huge Shel Silverstein fan named Rachael) and the cocktails and later wine selection were beyond compare.
