Matterhorn


Steph's pick. Different and pretty good. It was kind of hokey. But we ate A LOT. We were so stuffed. The idea is to dip meet and cheese and bread into various oils and cheeses. This was the weekend of Hurricane Katrina so we had a not so fun chat about that. 9/2/05.

    Can you believe that this was the only fondue spot in the city (at least at the time)? True, kind of hokey old school Swiss theme but the cheese fondue was fantastic (as if gooey cheese and bread could ever not be). Grace was our first R Club guest (she continues to lobby for full membership).

Frisson

First ever meeting of the Restaurant Club! This swanky Financial District restaurant/lounge was the perfect choice to kick of our new R. Club (ultimately, Frisson to close down). After hearing Dionne state that she didn't want a drink due to a supposed hangover from the night before, the truth came out that she was preggers (with Matty). We got a free bottle of wine from Gail's friend, JP. The atmosphere was better than the food here. Just the beginning of years of fun... 5/20/05

Opaque: Dining in the Dark

(Dionne's pick). Was quite a trip to dine int eh dark. We couldn't see anything, it was pitch black!! Was scary at first, then fun, then hilarious. The service SUCKED - it was the waiter's first day. And he told us to be quieter because I guess someone was complaining. Food was not even that good, except for the first course of tuna tartare. Very overpriced ($99 pp), plus then booze (stemless glasses). Kind of a rip. 4/25/09.
