Having Fun And Trying Lily’s New Fall Lunch Menu
Posted on 21. Oct, 2010 by BrianSimpson in Hotel, Lily's Restaurant
When you mix a crisp day in NYC, a new Fall lunch menu and two people that love take pictures of everything – the end result is this:
Adam and Brian’s “Big Words” Lunch Review at Lily’s Restaurant.
Recently our Chef, Daniel Mowles, released his teams Fall lunch menu and we were excited to try it. We each started with the ‘soup of the day’ which happened to be Clam Chowder (pronounced Chowdah). Not to creamy, nicely seasoned, small potatoes, clams in every bite and fresh, warm rustic bread to clean the bowl! As a main course Adam enjoyed the Papperdelle Pasta, served with broccoli rabe, hen of the woods mushrooms, roasted shaved garlic and fresh pecorino romano cheese. I opted for the Market Salad which boasted house-made pickled root vegetables, roasted cauliflower, forest mushrooms, sliced breakfast radish and a vegetable puree dressing.
For dessert Jesus, our server and all around great guy, suggested the Five Spice Apple Tart. The smell alone of the spices, especially the cinnamon, were enough to prompt us to order a second!
To wash it all down an espresso and a cappuccino…
Next up – the dinner menu…and wine!
Special thanks for appearing in our post and making lunch enjoyable:
