Barnacle
What an absolutely lovely spot to enjoy a cocktail while waiting for a seat at the Walrus & the Carpenter. I only regret not returning after dinner for another drink with so many amaros to choose from.
Cobble hill variation – fernet branca, carpano antica, bitter lemon soda
The Walrus & the Carpenter
I had wanted to visit for what seems like ages but a trip to Seattle just never materialized. So when I found myself needing a few thousand more miles before the end of the year it was the perfect excuse. An absolutely perfect meal and a waldorf salad that I could eat every single day (and my mother will attest that I actually hate waldorf salad).
Waldorf salad, cabbage, hazelnuts, pear, dill
Scallop crudo, radish, smoked almond tarator, olio nuovo
Steelhead salmon tartare, horseradish creme fraiche, rye
Maple bread pudding, espresso butter sauce, whipped cream
Canon
I was exceptionally lucky to almost immediately get a seat at the bar on a Friday night, especially after being quoted a 30 min wait. Canon truly is a whisky and bitters emporium and so many bottles made for a lovely view. I loved the bottled sparkling last word as a slight variation on one of my all time favorite cocktails.
