Review of The Ashby Restaurant

Surrender your credit card to the culinary gods and revel in the sweetness of their mercy, channeled through the capable hands of their executive chef muse. Heaven. Total epicurean heaven. This is the food I dream about. This is the food that other fancy restaurants try to make and leave you disappointed and lacking. Not this place. This chef knows his business. It lives up to its gustatory promise. After a meal that left us sated and ready for a nap, just when I thought the savory victories meant that the pastry would be lacking, I got knocked out with a one-two dessert home run. We had the chef’s tasting menu with wine pairing. This is expensive. All in, it was $760 for two people for lunch. Worth every penny. The last time I had a meal this good was in Paris, France. Run, don’t walk.
