March's date night took us to our favorite place,
The Walrus & The Carpenter. We haven't been in quite some time {mainly because it has gotten so, so expensive} but last week we decided to treat ourselves to a fancy Tuesday date night just cuz {also, March is a great time for oysters}. We were seated right away {perks of going early on a weeknight} and after ordering some drinks immediately ordered 2 of each oyster on the menu, savoring each one and ordering more of our 2 favorites for another round. We supplemented our oyster feast with Ben's Bread and whipped butter {that butter......}, fried brussels sprouts, albacore crudo with orange, kumquat and aleppo, and of course, the steak tartare {which, alas, gets smaller and more expensive every year we go}. Regardless of our lighter wallets at the end of the evening, it was worth it to splurge at our fave place that is consistently delicious every single visit. I'm not opposed to paying for amazing food, and Walrus never disappoints :)
