A Lovely Dinner Out
Sep. 3rd, 2025 11:00 pmWe went out to Woods Hill Table for dinner, and they have what Less Than Greater Than would term a “Baller Cocktail”: a $29 Vieux Carre made with some very fancy vermouth and armagnac. They smoke it, put it in a stoppered potion bottle, and put the bottle in a wood box with a metal clasp to deliver to the table. 10/10 would recommend. Theater is excellent, and the drink itself was worthy.
I had the duck leg, and I thought I was getting some kind of panzanella with summer veg, but it was mostly watermelon. Very yummy, and very savory, so no complaints. We had the coconut sorbet, and something called “Apple Pommeau”, which is apple apple water as near as I can tell, but some kind of apple alcohol made in the style of a dessert wine. It was yummy, and I think it’s from Ithaca, NY.
I walked with M. I also walked with R.
We had a weird and unsatisfying, and distressing for R., further discussion about why he’s so opposed to me getting a storage unit for managing the complex timing problem of ordering furniture for the new house (I don’t want it too early and I don’t want to wait forever for it either, and we don’t really know when we’ll get a certificate of occupancy, and the construction manager doesn’t want any furniture delivered pre-certificate).
I had a delightful conversation with J.
