😍 5/5 - I read great reviews - not just on Yelp but everywhere -

I read great reviews - not just on Yelp but everywhere - but the menu was cryptic, divided into sections "Dirt", "Water", "Pasture", and "Pantry" with not much description so I threw caution to the wind and went for the chef's tasting menu instead. Glad I did; quite an experience. These menus change from day to day so every meal is a surprise. Substitutions are usually not possible on a tasting menu. The waiter asked if I had any allergies or food aversions. I told him I will try almost anything once but I'm not into fois gras (some reviews mentioned they use it on occasion). Wouldn't you know, the second course was titled "Fois Gras" but he told me it was just one component in the dish, a pumpkin soup. Would they have left it out if I asked? Probably. Would they have substituted an entirely different dish? Unsure. I wasn't going to lose out on one course of this rather expensive 5-course meal so I said ok. Turns out it really should have been titled "Dutch Fork Pumpkin Soup" because that was the dominant component. The small slab of seared fois gras on top could have been entirely omitted in my opinion with no loss. But it really was quite good. Don't hate me. In fact, each of the 5 courses was outstanding, without qualification. Which you want to eat slowly and thoughtfully, trying to identify flavors that seem to change with every bite. I was there 2 and 1/4 hours. That's a long time to be sitting at a bar counter. I never got bored or restless even though I was dining solo. I kept busy watching people and taking notes on my iPhone. My neighbor to my left was also alone so I tried a few attempts at conversation. He was also taking notes, the old-fashioned way - in a notebook. I didn't get much out of him other than he was from NYC, needed to get away, and was working on his travel journal. When he left before me I wished him well on his travels and he did the same. I don't know if this is the rule or exception with tasting menus but every diner was allowed to proceed at their own pace. I expected everybody would be served together. But this way is much better in my opinion. An impulsive decision to add the wine pairing turned this to my most expensive meal ever. 5 wines (1/2 glass pours so it was manageable), selected to go with each course. This option exactly doubled the cost. Was it worth it? Well, these were all exceptional wines and which I would have never tried ordinarily, and are never available by the glass. Each wine is delivered a few minutes before the course is served by the sommelier, each in a glass appropriate for the style. He shows me the bottle, tells me a few things about the wine, and answers questions if I have any. I'm no wine expert, so I mostly didn't have any but one I liked so much (Domaine Gachot-Monot, Pinot Noir, Cotes de Nuits 2021) that I asked him where to find it. He asked where I was from (Massachusetts) and was able to tell me immediately the U.S. distributor (Kermit Lynch). Without a doubt an expert in his trade. So yes, it was worth it, but I won't be doing this often. My waiter, behind the bar, also served as bartender for this, the smaller of the two bars. I dealt more with the sommelier and the runners, but he was constantly keeping my water filled (no chlorine taste, whether it was bottled or filtered I don't know), checking up on me, and always available to answer questions. The room: very loud but fun. Very dark. Had to use my phone light often. It's a converted Greyhound bus terminal (hence the name) but so transformed you would hardly know except for some original signs (I was seated near "Gate 2"). Music: Patti Smith, Blondie, Fleetwood Mac, etc. As I said, the food was complex and my descriptions won't do it justice. So I'll just copy the menu notes here verbatim. It's not listed online because it changes day by day but will give you an idea what to expect. 1. SCALLOP CRUDO - collard green aguachile, celery, chives 2. FOIS GRAS - dutch fork pumpkin soup, apple, green tomato & okra relish 3. BABA GHANOUSH - smoked carrot, salsa macha, court boullion 4. GRILLED LAMP CHOP - farro & lima bean ragu, zaatar yogurt, roasted scallion 5. BUTTERSCOTCH PUDDING - chantilly cream, peanut brittle (Oh dear, this review is too long to post. Read the rest in the third photo if you're so inclined :-)
