Last night we had dinner at a place called PS7. The guys – Mark & his son Ethan – liked it a lot, but I thought it was the kind of menu where all the dishes had too many ingredients, and none of the food looked like what it started off as.
Like the bread – there were five little breads, 3 flavors: a square bacon & cheese biscuit; Rosemary-garlic focaccia; and two little round dill buns.
The warm spinach salad came rolled up in a ball. It had so much more than just spinach – bacon, feta, deep-fried crispy shallots.
I had the vegetarian entree. On the menu it was described as cannelloni stuffed with a mushroom “sausage”, with sweet potato. The noodle was very little in evidence. The mushroom filling had no visible mushrooms. It was very finely ground, pretty well flavored – thyme-y – generally sausage-like. There was a little light mornay (cheese) sauce on top. The sweet potato was mashed and piped out as rosettes on top, and baked quite solid. Then they threw a big handful of arugula on top, and drizzled on some dressing – oh yea, and more of the crispy shallots. The greens were actually the best part.
