Rustic Kitchen

Adam and I celebrated Mother's Day yesterday with plasticmom in absentia. The only caveat...we had to eat something plasticmom would enjoy. Fortunately, plasticmom enjoys everything. Feeling famished, I insisted on eating MEAT for dinner last night so we wound up at Rustic Kitchen. Here's the lowdown:

Field Greens: Take it or leave it. Pile of greens lightly dressed with "too small" croutons.
Flank Steak with truffled fries and tomatoes: Hit the spot. Crunchy fries garnished with a head of roasted garlic. Steak was flavorful and delicious.
Macaroni & Cheese: Adam was disappointed that there was not crunchy topping on his Mac&Cheese. I enjoyed it, but it felt more appropriate as a side dish rather than a main course.

Overall Verdict: Tasty, but slightly overpriced. Pizzas looked good and the restaurant is nicely decorated. Fresh bread came with a delicious white bean/garlic/olive oil dip.
