FACTS:  Established in 1936.  It’s now owned by Graydon Carter, of Vanity Fair.

WHAT I ORDERED: 

Crab cake

Hamphire pork chop

Brussels sprouts

French fries

Assortment of Desserts:  Tiramisu, Beignets, Ice Cream Sandwiches

MY ANALYSIS:  

My crab cake was absolutely delicious—a lot of crab meat and not overly breaded! I absolutely LOVE bread, but not when it makes up 75% of a crab cake. The brussels sprouts were also a standout and definitely worth ordering as a side dish. The pork chop and french fries were good, but not really worth mentioning (even though I just did, sort-of). My favorite dessert was the beignets.

Beignet WARNING:  This is a finger food that should only be eaten as such. Do not attempt to use a butter knife. This will only cause great distress and possible embarrassment! If you are completely opposed to using your fingers, make sure to request the sharpest apparatus available.

QUICK TIDBIT:  No Interesting monkey business to share.
