Park Here
September 16, 2010
Last night my friend and I visited Park’s Edge for the first time.
We were blown away.
The owner led us to our table {we chose to dine al fresco} which was elegantly set with a white tablecloth and cayenne colored napkins — perfect for fall!
After allowing us to sample a few pinots before selecting our favorite, our server started us out with a basket of crusty french bread and a head of roasted garlic. Marvelous.
Soup du jour
We both ordered the soup of the day, a heavenly bowl of pureed spinach topped with a cold salad of onion, tomato, cremini mushrooms and lamb juice, amongst other ingredients.
We split the Chicken Chili Roll as an appetizer.
Chicken Eggroll with a kick
Finally, I ordered the Heirloom Tomato Salad and could only muster about two bites — I was already stuffed! However, the wedges of green and red tomatoes atop greens with thick slices of mozzarella was not only pleasing to palette, but also the eye. Note: I had already embarrassed my companion enough with the brilliant BB flash, so I refrained from snapping a pic of my entree. Camera = in the shop. Still.
Towards the end of the meal, Chef {another owner} Jorge stopped by our table to chat and enquire about our meal {which was perfection, btw}. Impressive.
Needless to say, we did not order dessert.
However, we will be back for brunch. Per Chef Jorge the Crab Cake Eggs Benedict and Chilaquiles with a Fried Egg are TDF.
Oh, and the bottomless Mimosas and Bellinis on the weekends are the perfect hangover cure. Go get one.
