First night back in town following an afternoon flight, so I suggested we go out for dinner. Where? Well, our “go-to’s” are either Table & Main or its sister restaurant, Osteria Mattone. We had last been to OM, so T&M it is! Wife got the three course prix fixe dinner for $35 cornbread manzanilla salad with half a chicken with parsnips, (half of which came home!) and bananas foster pudding (NONE of which came home!) For me, I tried the butternut squash & poblano bisque followed by the new menu’s pot roast dinner entree. I found myself wishing the soup had a little more “kick” but the pot roast lived up to waiter Conner’s description and is deserving of a spot in the rotation of meals I will order!
