Trying to be healthy, I had the turkey burger. I didn’t want fries or whatever other carb was a side option, so I got cole slaw. What arrived on my plate was a beige burger (very dry) on a beige bun (housemade, I’m sure, but really awful. Kind of like a skating-rink pretzel gone horribly wrong. Tough and industrial, like some sort of sustainable insulation). No lettuce, no tomato, no onion, no bleeping parsley! for godness sake. The open face burger had some naked, shredded cabbage on it. It was the driest, blandest entree I’ve been confronted with in a long time. And i know turkey burgers can be dry, but that’s what the chef is there for, to do something to counterbalance that.

I guess I would expect that a restaurant with a committment to organic and farm-to-table and whatnot would be celebrating Nature’s bounty more or something. That’s been my overall impression of the place, that they have sustainably grown whatever but also a deep aversion to vegetables. I’m sure the turkey was lovingly raised and the farmer was fairly traded and stuff, but the end product was just awful. And the vibe is very strange. It’s a real shame.
