I assure you that plenty of the dinner selections have been ordered when available, and have included pork confit, flat iron steak, and scallops.<BR/><BR/>The original intent was to use paper cones, but we couldn't locate the right source. This is being assessed.<BR/><BR/>I'll pass along the comment about the frites.<BR/><BR/>RThe New Albanianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10757531658514051905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10691910.post-33868654548132673342009-04-01T08:07:00.000-04:002009-04-01T08:07:00.000-04:00Not sure of you are looking for BSB feedback on he...Not sure of you are looking for BSB feedback on here or not, but I have some to offer:<BR/><BR/>Yesterday evening, our waiter described the special menu to us in excruciating detail. We ended up just ordering mussels and frites... which I believe are pretty much always on the menu. When I looked around, that's all I saw anyone eating. It made me wonder to myself "Has ANYONE ordered one of the actual dinners?" Not really sure what I'm trying to say here, but something didn't seem right.<BR/><BR/>Also, with regards to the pommes frites: <BR/> - You need to ditch the porcelain bowls and go with paper cones.<BR/> - Please fill the dipping sauces more than 1/2" full. I like to really dip.<BR/> - I would personally prefer a slightly thicker cut on the potatoes... the shoestring cut leads to the last third of the bowl being nothing but hard-to-pick-up crumbs.<BR/><BR/>Kudos on bringing more local beer to downtown NA!Beanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18421379488532521607noreply@blogger.com
