My sister is in town for a business trip and for dinner tonight, we went to Bar Tartine. The
last time I went to Bar Tartine was also with my sister over a year ago. We went for lunch and I'd vowed to return for dinner.
To start, we ordered the sliced bread with herb butter because well, I can't give up the chance to try Chad Robertson's bread. The bread was thick, moist, soft, and so doughy. We also ordered the beef tartare with potato flatbread, which tasted very different from traditional beef tartare. The cured salmon with oyster mushrooms and ramps was a very refined dish and came in a cold broth. While all the dishes were very good, the favorite of the night was the smoked potatoes with black garlic. I'd heard so many rave reviews about the potatoes and it definitely did not disappoint. The sauce was a bit overwhelming but so flavorful. I have got to learn to make this at home. I enjoyed the meal and I'm glad I finally got to dine here but I do think that the dishes are pricey for the portion sizes.
