Fries Americain, please!

So my friend C and I stopped by Bar Americain last night for a drinky-poo and some snacks. I would just like to say - GREAT! Even despite the fact I have mixed feelings about Mr. Flay as a tv personality. I hadn't been in there since it was Judson Grill (is that right?). Anyway. I would like to go back for dinner, but being a vegetarian, there really wasn't a whole lot for me. The Fries Americain are DELISH and the Asparagus Chopped Salad was equally divine. They were also thoughtful enough to bring us a little bread basket with some yummy cornbread spears of some sort prior to our snackage. We sat at the bar where I had an expertly made dirty martini and a Duvel beer:


Finally, the bar staff service was great. I will definitely go back encore!
