alex's dinner on Tuesday, February 03, 2009

On my last night in Manhattan, after an afternoon of work and a quick trip to Macy's to pick up the dress pants I hadn't meant to send home to Chicago with parents, I had dinner with Anne(@the57thStreetBridge) at Les Halles. The food was excellent, though my slowly-creeping sickness prevented me from fully enjoying it. I had the faux-filet borsco (second steak in a week), a tasty medium rare steak with house-made butter and French fries. For an appetizer, we had escargot, which tasted like garlic and their own texture. Finally, for desert, profiteroles, which I finished despite being essentially fully drained. I really liked the place and it was great to hear about Anne's life in Manhattan; next time I'm in New York I fully intend to take her up on her offer to check out some of Manhattan's top nightlife.
