Saturday afternoon Christian took me on a date night to thank me for watching Nina lately, and since The Walrus & The Carpenter is one of our favorite places but we've never been together we decided to give it a shot. Since it can be impossible to get into, we arrived at 3:45 {they open at 4} to a line already forming outside the restaurant. We were seated at the oyster bar and immediately began to drool over the baskets of oysters in front of us. We started with some drinks {sparkling rosè for me and a beer for him}, the most delicious bread and creamy butter, and a dozen oysters to get the afternoon started right. The rest of our food came out one by one - the steak tartare {so yummy!}, fried cod collar {with the most delicious tartar sauce}, and grilled sardines with walnuts - and everything was absolutely perfect that I could've kept eating all night. Even though we've been trying to stay in and cook more, it's fun every now and then to go out on a fun date night - especially to such a fabulous place where we always know it's gonna be good. Where to next??
