Much as we respect the vegan burgers down the street. I could write a detailed review of that review and maybe I will. Some weird stuff. Rosner understood it much better.

Orik Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 The quiet opening plan was perhaps too perfectly orchestrated and got both Wells and Rosner to write us up at the same exact moment (I didn't foresee nymag finding us ahead of time, but I appreciated them filling almost all seats in August). Wells is funny, and as with the sandwiches, a bit frustrated that he didn't get a chance to find us sooner (no Elk? because you didn't come a couple of months ago! Night and day from the sandwiches? except it's exactly the same Texas hill country goat...) and the only one to feel the responsibility for a broad audience - he looks at the distribution (of prices, dishes, playlist) and not a specific item or song he recognizes, and importantly for us, he makes sure vegan-ish Karen doesn't show up. I think the most significant deficiency in the review is the wine coverage. Do your homework and drink 2012 Cibonne at under 2x retail and don't complain you don't know the perfectly nice btg. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Behemoth_Munich Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 (edited) Congratulations on the reviews! Love that you’re serving Grawü, surprised they even have enough volume to be distributing in the US. Spent a lovely afternoon in Cermes there with a friend who knew Dominic. Edited September 19, 2023 by Behemoth_Munich 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Congratulations from me as well, and my compatriots over at Other Dining Message Board are similarly thrilled and plotting to descend for a menu sweep.

mongo Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 well, mrs. jones and i are going to be in new york next month for a very short trip and we are hoping to eat at foxface natural. i for one would be thrilled to be able to eat as much of the menu as possible, as once a year is the absolute maximum we could hope to eat there (i say that while aware that this will be my second trip to nyc this year).

Wilfrid Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Congratulations should go without saying. But here's the point I have been making in private for several weeks in anticipation of this review. I don't say Superiority Burger should have two stars; I don't even say Foxface should have four (although the food and wine deserve it). But having them both at three stars makes the star system look silly. An outcome Wells may relish, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneakeater Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 By Wells's own lights I really don't see why Foxface Natural doesn't get four stars. I'm totally serious about that. To me, it's like the perfect example of what a four-star restaurant would be under the new system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
