On my recommendation, a friend held his birthday dinner at Animal, so of course I wanted everything to be as good as it could be — it did not disappoint. We had nearly everything on the menu, and shared it all family style.
We brought 11 bottles of wine with us, and opened 9, so needless to say, I wasn’t pay too much attention to retaining the paper menu for the night, so I’m pasting directly from Animal’s site, a few of the items that we all shared below:
melted petit basque, chorizo, garlic bread
pork ribs, balsamic, delicata squash & rocket salad, pecans
foie gras, biscuit, maple sausage gravy
quail fry, grits, maple jus, long cooked chard, slab bacon
flat iron, sunchoke, chanterelle mushrooms, hotel butter
turbot, king crab, tabasco butter, gold rice succotash, cipollini
bacon chocolate crunch bar, s&p anglaise
My review of the night: fantastic! All around fantastic. Service was great; company was great; conversations were great; food was over the top amazing.
