Delayed Anniversary Getaway Part 2
If you haven’t seen Part 1, you can read it here:
I enjoy trying new foods, restaurants, etc & this restaurant is very unique & very highly rated. It’s a very small, 12 person (6 right now with social distancing) restaurant that does a unique tasting menu. Basically it means the chef decides what to cook & they just keep bringing you small plates of food. (You pay a set price for the evening.)
10 years ago Grant, Susie & I went to The French Room in Dallas & it was a similar style – you pay a set price & can choose between a couple different options of small plates that keep coming throughout the evening. The French Room had delicious food & was a fun experience, definitely the fanciest restaurant we’ve ever eaten at, where they put your napkins in your lap for you, etc… Far superior to this Madison experience.
It was a very…. different experience. Yes, we got to try many different/unique foods. Would we go back? No.
The music was loud & obnoxious, vulgar, etc. And the chef basically said it’s either that or they would play “Let it Go” on a loop the whole time if we didn’t like their taste in music. (And who wants to be those people?)
The service was good, we had full water glasses all night. They brought out fresh silverware for each course. I got the wine pairing with the dinner & I’m glad I did. It was fun to try tastes of different wines & see how they paired with the foods.
It’s a little interesting to me, as I’m thinking about how I did a long post about this restaurant that we really didn’t care for, but we went for the experience & it’s definitely an experience we won’t forget. 🙂
