Excursions: The Village Quarter

I mean, come on. You know you want to know more about this place.

Hit the jump for Smoked Tomato Bisque, Bacon-wrapped Mushrooms and more...

Pictures of those, that is.

...I mean just look at it.

Since I already made my cute and corny Valentine's Day post and made my lovey-dovey Valentine's Day comment, this post is going to focus on the actual restaurant and not so much our purpose for being there. The pictures pretty much speak for themselves, so I won't rant too much about how unbelievable the food was. My favorite part about the restaurant was the intimate atmosphere and the decor, not to mention the entire menu was sustainable & organic! My least favorite part was probably sitting directly in the crossfire of the door's opening and closing, pushing excruciatingly ice-cold air into the restaurant and right onto my defenseless bare shoulders (Valentine's Day = little black dress = freezing shoulders). But seriously, this food was so good and fresh, and they served perfect portions so I didn't feel like I was starving after we were done, which seems to be the case at most expensive restaurants with tiny dishes.
