Wisteria




WWGD... wait for over an hour at Pura Vida or 20 minzie at Wisteria? Aaah, yeah Gastro... that's a no brainer!!! It was a prudent choice because I was craving some good southern fwied chicken anyways.

This neighborhood restaurant is often over looked because new restos are sprouting up everywhere like a Chia Pet. Unlike some of my ex-girlfriends, this place consistently puts out... puts out tasty grub. What else could it be?! You rowdy people are so dirty!

Crab Bisque - Chunky pieces of crab and velvety smooth with the calvados creme fraiche. Put away your CVS card, no treatment needed after getting these crabs.

Kobe Beef Carpaccio - A happy cow makes for a happy appetizer! Chick-fil-A ain't got nuthin' on this. Eat Mor Meat!

Seared Sea Scallops w/ Pork Belly - Surf n Turf... enuff said. The bourbon molasses reduction was too sweet and overwhelmed the main focus just a bit. Lighten up on the reduction and let the natural flavors of the pork do it's job and it's all good!

North Atlantic Skate Wing - I'd skate over thin ice for a taste of this meaty and tasty wing anytime. The Ice Road Twuckers never had it this good. Classic lemon brown butter sauce, asparagus and stone-ground corn grits were pillowy good.

Iron Skillet Fwied Chicken - Crispy, moist and tender...only an seasoned iron skillet can deliver. Bacon braised collard greens with roasted sweet corn pudding was pure southern home cooking. James Brown just called... he wants his soul back and a doggie bag.

Molly Dooker Blue Eyed Boy Shiraz - This genuine product of Sarah & Sparky Marquis was the perfect pairing for this tasty meal.

Jason Hill is not the little engine that thinks he can survive in the world of corporate restos anymore... with his tasty grub and packed house, I know he can.

Choo Choo.
