+1.

Somebody must’a thunk that “abattoir” recalls those romantic candle-lit dinners in Paris…..but only if your idea of a charming restaurant is part of “the Cook, Thief, Wife, Lover” aesthetic

Well stated.

I hope the next dining trend focuses on legumes. They don’t get enough credit.

rudimentary, cursory, pigeonholed pig-themed dining reached trendy saturation limits (along with tattoos) a few years ago. time to think of a better concept and broaden the epicurean brush strokes from a one-stop-shop animal.

I thought Mendelson was opening a Robert Johnson-themed Mexican joint called “Hot Tamales and They’re Red Hot.”

What about Kosher, vegan pork dishes?

I know that they specialize in pigs but, for real, my vegetarian Hasidic friend is coming to town next week and we’d really like to check this place out. I guess it’s their loss…..ugh

Considering EatWell restaurants have seriously all gone down hill in recent years, in terms of food prep, service, overall experience, I doubt this will be great.

I was excited about this until I realized who (the inaptly named) EatWell DC is. Unless this place is a significant departure from the other restaurants, count me out.

“Neighborhood priced” in Logan. Ouch. But the prices won’t hurt nearly as much as if you are mistaken for a pig there.

So I’m guessing no kosher options here then?
