Finished up with a caramel panna cotta. Compass was a huge waste of money.

Ma Peche!!!!!!

Oysters- good, beef tar tar with pickled sprouts and shrimp chips- good. Asparagus salad with yummy crab junk underneath- licked the plate.

Spare ribs with caramel and mint. I want to bathe in this sauce.

Fried cauliflower with fish sauce and cilantro. Salty and crispy.

Finished off with salty pistachio soft serve. If you wanna try Ma Peche, there was no wait Sunday at 9pm.

The pork chop came with fingerling potatoes that melted like warm butter with English peas in a cream sauce- Best taste of the meal.

Also ate pork chop in an orange glaze for 4, crispy rice noodles with ramps and sausage. Scallops.

The food came fast and furious and I had to put away my device.

Minetta Tavern. Late Supper. Waiting at the bar drinking beer with my Dad. Just saw La Cage Aux Folles.

Enormous new York strip. Crusty and juicy as hell. Side of cabbage..

Aligot, potatoes with gobs of melted cheese and roasted potatoes with duckfat. Taking food home.

Minetta Tavern, old fashioned NYC steakhouse. Peter Luger's with better potatoes and a downtown vibe.

5 Napkin Burger got some deep fried pastrami and pickles on top of a pile of saurkraut.

Big juicy burger with bacon and cheddar. Pretty good. Onion rings a little dry for my taste.

Bonus! 2 courses of dessert. 1: black & white malted...

2: espresso caramel sundae with salted peanuts. We've reached the season of daily ice cream.

Inhaled 3 jewels (BBQ pork, roasted duck & soy sauce chicken) with a little vinegary scallion sauce at Great NY Noodletown.

chicken was juiciest meat on the plate and it was white meat without sauce The pork & duck were good too, but I expect it from them.
