Gramercy

Had a great evening at Gramercy Tavern. Instead of getting stale like so many restaurants, this one seems to get better- the food, the service, the reception.


Fluke Tartare
Radish and Caviar


Clam Chowder
Celery Root and Smoked Trout Roe


Halibut
Carrot, Cabbage and Calamari


Duck Dumplings
Turnips and Black Kale


Roasted Loin of Millbrook Venison
Chestnuts, Beets and Pear


For the wines, we had a 1995 Meursault by Robert Ampeau (Côte de Beaune) and a 2001 Clos des Lambrays.

2 Amys

Had another great meal at 2 Amys in Washington, DC. Our first server got tripped up on the slice meats selection and the clam pizza was not as good as Pepe's but otherwise a very enjoyable dinner.

Picking up a pie for the ride home. Half sauce only, other half with mushrooms and olives.
