I'm sitting here stuffed to the brim from a wonderful dinner at William Hallet. Located on 30th this restaurant is right in the middle of a row of restaurants and hustle and bustle.
I started with a wonderful Merlot which was most enjoyable throughout my whole meal. For my main I enjoyed the Vegetable tatin which had seasonal vegetables, puff pastry, mixed greens, summer truffle oil. Again, let me emphasize my love for truffle oil. I love it. When my plate arrived it was still steaming which allowed the scent of the truffle oil to escape into the air in front of me. Delightful. Then my side of onion rings arrived which was covered in a buttermilk batter. Yum!
L ordered the Suckling pig with cheddar grits, zucchini pancakes, roasted apples, pork jus. She enjoyed hers as much as I enjoyed mine. For dessert we enjoyed the Whoopie pie which was devil food cake, crème filling, chocolate ganache. It also came with a shot of milk which tasted strangely like alcohol. Mmm. This whoopie pies is something that needs to be shared, I could not have finished it alone.
The atmosphere was most enjoyable. I usually arrive early to my dinners so it was nice to see the restaurant before it filled up and absorb the atmosphere. The noise level was fine, L and I could talk at a normal level without yelling at each other. The cocktail list was a little sad, I would have liked to have seen more drinks with vodka. I'm a little Polish, I need my water.
