Dinner at The Brasserie

Roasted Duck Spring Egg Roll...Roasted Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms...Delmonico Steak...Rack of Ribs.

Oh baby.

Last night, my parents were kind enough to take Peninah and me to The Brasserie for my birthday. I don't think I had been there for dinner since the menu change. Things are much different now. Not only is the menu much broader, the portions are HUGE. After polishing off all of the above (to be fair, I only had one rib), I was barely able to move, and have made a nice dent in my post-surgery weight loss. It was an awesome eating experience.

Little known fact: did you know that Lonnie owns kosher.com?

My parents got me a pinkish-orangish polo shirt with a zipper where the buttone should be for my birthday. Try to contain your envy.

I give the meal at The Brasserie an A+!!!! It was excellent food, good service and it was quiet. We all had a great meal. Who's having the next birthday in the family.....?????

I would be more than happy to go back there for your birthday, Mom.

It's hard to find ribs in Israel do you think that they could FedEx an order overnight?

Question: do you have any further information about the "aged meats" part of the menu?

Elliott: I imagine something could be worked out. If the Bra doesn't do it, I'm sure someplace in New York would.

J: The only information I have is that they are GOOD.

Jennifer: I think you are, unless you count Netani.
