Juniper & Ivy

          Hey, readers, the reviews are finally starting again. I took a break for a while because I had to catch up with a couple of other things. But over my break I went to a new restaurant. Obviously, because I am writing again. This time I went to a well-known restaurant named Juniper and Ivy.

 

          The design of the restaurant is soothing and modern. It's a large restaurant with a bar and an open kitchen. As in open kitchen I mean you can see all the chefs as they cook. One cool thing I noticed is that they have several rooms that are behind curtains in case the restaurant gets too full. This makes it more soothing for the customer because then there is not that much open space. But it's also good to have some extra room too.

 

          Now, as I sat down I was greeted by a very nice young man. A waiter obviously. He sat me down at a comfortable booth near the open kitchen. As I was looking at the menu the waiter brought me warm Bread Buns. They had a very distinct garlic taste to them which was a great start. I ordered their Wild Boar Ragu.

 

          My food arrived shortly after I ordered which was nice because the Bread Buns after taste was making my mouth water. I took a small bite into the dish. I was expecting it to be hot, but it was perfectly warmed. The Pasta was very well cooked and the Sauce was amazing. It tasted almost like Bolognese Sauce with extra Vegetable Oil. It was very good, though. I loved the combination of the Pork and the Sauce. It was perfect!

 

          To top that off, I ordered dessert. The name of the dessert is called Yodel. It is a Chocolate Cake filled with Hazelnut Brittle. As the waiter set it on my table he then pulled out a silver cup filled with melted Chocolate. He slowly poured it over the Cake which made the cake crumble. It was very well designed. Definitely one of my favorite Chocolate Cakes.

 

          Overall, Juniper & Ivy is a large restaurant that has high-quality service and food. From the warm Bread Buns to the main dish and then straight to the Yodel dessert was an easy process. There were no problems with the waiter and environment of the restaurant. The extra rooms and the open kitchen adds to the greatness of the place.

          Juniper & Ivy receives 4 FullBellies. Well done!
