~ w/ eggplant caponata and salmoriglio
NB Pink Sea Salt Chip Ice Cream

The bone marrow was mixed into the mash, so not the fatty goodness that I was expecting

Love the soft newly salty smoked sausage here which was perfect with the crunchy sweet chips
~ the big winner
Woods Virgin Caesar

This was an extra and even though it was a virgin caesar, I loved it
NB Sweet & Smokey BBQ Chips

After a bite, I decided that I need to visit this new restaurant right away. This was definitely my favorite dish of the day.
