NYC – 12/19/17 – Augustine

I had high hopes for the whisky burger at Augustine based on other reviews but found it to be oddly flavorless which was completely disappointing considering the very high $27 price point.  Thankfully the fries were quite good.  I also did not get the accompanying shot of whiskey that I thought came with it and others at the bar were served.  Such likely would have helped!  The waldorf salad was a bit basic and nothing I would order again considering I have made many far better versions at home.  I love the space and the energy was fantastic.  But in the future I will stick to the lobby at the Beekman (which is gorgeous) or Fowler & Wells.

NYC – 11/27/15 – Minetta Tavern

It may not photograph as well as some others, but the Black Label burger is still my favorite in the city.  And the bone marrow may be one of the best as well.  As I put together this entry I just realized that between the sidecar and the bone marrow my dad would have loved this meal/midnight snack.
