Our group dinner at the new Indian place was…. just ok, even tho @medgirl and @travelmad478’s comments in this thread had already lowered my expectations.
We didn’t order family-style (as we do with our chili head group) so that everyone could order whatever they wanted to try. I shared the baingan bharta & the chicken kholapuri with my PIC, and got to try the papdi chaat someone ordered, an interesting appetizer of crackers with yogurt sauce (a little sweet for my liking), and I also tried the saag paneer that was of a mesmerizing, bright green color. We ordered a bunch of naan for the table – the garlic and the butter naan were both wonderfully buttery & perhaps the best naan I’ve had in town (not that there are that many options). Sadly, they were out of the keema naan.The baingan bharta was the best I’ve had, ever: smoky, silky, spicy.
However, I thought most of the meat & shrimp dishes were lacking in complexity, the vindaloo and other dishes ordered “spicy” really weren’t…. it just fell short overall.
And so, the search for good Indian food continues.

I used the leftover mackerel and some poached salmon to make another terrine-ish thing, mashed potato on top.

A first visit to Marlowe https://www.marlowesf.com/ when looking for a solo dinner spot with cocktails at the bar in SoMa. Well known for their burger but was more in the mood for the pork cheeks which didn’t disappoint. Nice, relaxed ambience sitting at the bar with good cocktails.
Warm deviled egg, aged provolone, pickled jalapeño, bacon
Blue crab crepe, frisee salad, creme fraiche, dill, chili crunch
Braised pork cheeks, crispy cheese & potato croquette, grilled broccolini, garlic-chili & pork jus
Maria’s bread pudding, banana, raisin, vanilla bean ice cream, bourbon caramel

You eat very well, Herr Hupenmann 
That crepe! Also, for a moment I thought the thing on the deviled egg might be a piece of pickled herring or some other kind of fish.

Fish pie FTW!
(If you have more leftover mackerel, I was going to suggest brandade or fish cakes or both.)

I’d happily eat your whole meal, except dessert 
(bananas and bread pudding are both childhood anathema)
(On my way to eat my own crab rice crepe — rolled up like sushi though 
)

I guess this could have been a brandade.
Walked out of work at 5:15.
Poured a glass of wine at 5:50.
THEN I fed the boyz.
(They were concerned at not being first on my mind.)
Yeah, not today, guys.
Momma takes priority.
Sipped the wine…
Took out a Wegmans chuck & brisket burger from the freezer, as well as a brioche bun.
Sipped more wine.
Changed into comfy clothes.
Watched the news.
Finished the wine.
Made a salad.
Poured another glass of wine.
Cooked the burger.
Added a slice of American.
Plated with some broken Utz ridged potato chips.
Drizzled some Target honey-mustard dressing on the salad and enjoyed.

Thank you! It’s a fairly plain tablecloth from Provence that I think I bought at Costco 15 years ago, and 4 circular paper placemats I bought at a favourite gift shop last week, on top!
