I, for one, am thrilled to pieces.

We had duck breast last week, but didn't get a chance to disappoint Wilfrid with it. The spices were transcontinental.

Would any critic object to European spices appearing again and again? Oh, wait, are there any? And what's the problem with fish being on top?

My experience is that there's plenty of variety on their short menu.

 

Well, this week she sure seems to like Ichiran, where the spices and MSG are probably fairly repetitive.

And yes, variety abounds.

[mongo]

this is just standard reviewer behaviour: you have to find at least one thing to quibble with.

That's all very well, but were they transcendental? What's spiced duck if it can't fly us to another realm?

Four dimensional at the very least, not subject to the constraints of point in time reviews. By winter we'll be a potato restaurant dabbling in boar.

Anybody have the secret phone number?

I do, but it's secret. Like everybody else here, though, I can subdue my raging morality to the right price. How much are you offering?

 

 

 

OK, OK, Resy says (917) 768-5008.

Thanks!   It’s nice to know “people”!  It’s for my d-I-l and her bestie who’s treating.   If they’re successful, and I had a clue who you are, I could be had for lunch at my place.   Providing you act fast.   My clock’s ticking.

We are no more phone people than we are small plates people. 

But there are ways.

Not related to Foxface but i hear the next review is a re-review of a very popular ** place. I can't imagine it's a downgrade....

a bit worried about the seeming disappearance of uni from the menu.

 

(mrs. jones and i will be in new york for a hit and run trip in a couple of weekends and we will be foxing our faces to the max.)

(Although, stupid videos aside, I'll just say out loud what I know you already know:  whatever they have is gonna be pretty great.)

[mongo]

Well, I'm pretty sure California has not run out of the invasive purple sea urchin quite yet.  Eat it!!

Any decent fish market or Asian grocery will have it in a wooden tray. 

[Sneakeater]

The one up the street from me certainly does.

(Not that it's anything Ori and Sivan would ever dream of serving.)

Worse. Maine Uni. 

[small h]

I like Maine uni just fine! I'm not crazy about California uni.

[mongo]

that's crazy talk. santa barbara uni is excellent.
