a bite of brownie

Part of the going away is attending the going away lunches and dinners, so the past few days have been filled with dining out. Le Crocodile was my first choice when my friend and I were deciding for a good dinner place before watching "A Wonderful Life". But since this place wasn't open at that time, we promised to visit it some other day before I go.

The place is really classy and I felt underdressed wearing my hoodie and capris but then again, it's winter so I am underdressed any other way. The lady who served us was like the female counterpart of that guy at Joe Fortes, very gracious, attentive and accommodating. These people really elevated the name hospitality.

The appie sampler was great, it was some sort of baked pastry that I forgot the name of. For appetizers, I got the Dungeness Crab Cake, something I've been craving for way back. I really liked the presentation of this dish, the basil sauce looked so nice that I thought it was plate decoration =). For entree I picked the rack of lamb, which was part of the daily specials. I skipped dessert this time, only because I've already gained five pounds in five days. Now how am I gonna fit on my swimsuit?

Verdict:
N: 4.5/5.0 [-.5 because the crab cake was a bit salty]
