Description:
The room recalls a retro soda fountain, with a counter and swirly stools on one side and booths with Formica tables on the other. Just don't expect to find a strawberry-banana float on the menu. The youngish hipsters who congregate here slurp up martinis and oysters. The menu avoids the trendy trap, managing both roasted capon with bourbon gravy and braised beef short ribs marinated in beer and marmalade. There's a nice selection of wines, almost all available by the glass. The popular weekend brunch features the usual eggy plates as well as some surprises: Spicy Moroccan olives or smoked arctic char salad, anyone?

All the trimmings of my pork chop were delicious, sadly, the pork chop itself was boring. The duck confit was as tasty as they come, rich and flavorful...wonder what the fat content...
