September 15, 2014 Fairsted Kitchen
My friend Jesse moved back to Boston after being away in California for 9 years. We celebrated his move back to the bean by heading over to Fairsted Kitchen. See my previous post here. Jesse was pumped about this because it’s just steps from their new home.
Of course we had the scallops, just an amazing dish – cooked perfectly!
The sweetbreads were tasty – not something I would normally order but I’m glad Jesse persuaded me to try them.
The lobster beignets were light and delicious served on top of a light corn salad.
The gnocchi was perfectly cooked as well and simply light as air.
We had the blueberry pie for dessert. I’m not generally a blueberry pie kind of gal, I like more of a crust to my pie, but this was delicious – like biting into summer, not too sweet and the graham cracker crust gave it some good texture.
I usually turn my nose up at pot de creme desserts – chocolate desserts (at restaurants in general) usually don’t have effort put into them. However, this was outstanding – and I stand corrected about chocolate desserts. This was light and flavorful – a really delicious dessert. I am pretty sure we I licked the cup clean.
