by sistersilence
Waiter was in a bad mood from the minute we got there. He didn't know what ingredients were and didn't offer to find out. My tiny entree cannelloni had no flavor.

The Details on palate food + wine
Look Good:
This is one library where beverages are permitted: Order a glass of wine and settle down with a book from the gastronomic library.
Where to Sit:
If possible, request a table with a view of the exhibition kitchen. It's always a bonus to watch master chefs in action.
Know Before You Go:
As a neighborhood restaurant, families and little children are always welcome. Even better, individual dishes are already kid-sized.
Parking:
While there's free street parking to be found, valet is a bargain at just $5.
