my “Autumn chopped salad”

the pre-order menu said this was supposed to come with a side of fresh seasonal fruit, which would have been far preferable to the pesto/burrata combo
I had the same meatballs dish recently and agree on the "salad" ... it was a massive, and not-very-appetizing-looking, glob of pesto ... I did not eat most of it. The dessert cake was very good, and very rich.

My seat neighbor had the brisket and it did look good, FWIW.
