grazie
we sat outdoors (masked when not eating) but indoor dining is allowed. Once my vax kicks in, Im ready for indoor dining with vaccinated friends who are comfy with indoor dining. Our current reservations this week are outdoor dining.

with my severe restaurant reduction, Im aware that I better appreciate restaurants when I reduce the patronage. Plus by going less, Im better able to leave 25-30% tips. I really am excited for cheaper eats - taquerias, pho, ramen.

I feel like a dinner party DO is in order at some point in the future. Too much talent and appreciation of good food here!

Wow. Mr CE got his 2nd vaccine at the University of Chicago this evening, and since we rarely are in Hyde Park we decided to check out Virtue for dinner. Amazing.
We had to start:
hoe cakes: pimento cheese, scallion
snap peas: butter lettuce, crunchy grains, harissa (they gave me sherry vinaigrette since I have a bell pepper sensitivity)
asparagus: midnight moon cheese, fried ham, caesar dressing
And for our mains:
salmon: Sweet peas, white beans, honey mustard
catfish: blackened, carolina gold rice, barbeque carrots
...with a side of cornbread and honey butter.
Desserts looked amazing but we were stuffed, so we'll save room for next time. Chicagoans, get to Hyde Park and check it out!
