We’d been to Love Lane Kitchen once before — and adored it. Now was our chance to go for dinner. With Lettie, who’d become a regular since moving out to the North Fork last October. It’s a homey, comfortable place with great food and wine. Although they allow Lettie to bring her own. As long as she shares.
First, the cast. Pol Roger and Lettie:
Les dorkages:
The setting:
Beadboard, wood tables and chairs, tile floors. Country. Country but not kitschy. We started with some lovely rolls:
For the appetizers…. crab cakes:
Gazpacho:
Beet salad:
Bibb lettuce salad:
Intermezzo. One of the owners or a regular waitress — I can’t remember!
Lettie snaps a photo and Por Roger examines the wine:
A cabernet sauvignon from Colombia Valley: Abeja, where she recently went.
It went fabulous with the entrees. Lamb chops:
Something pork:
My Moroccan tagine:
Lobster risotto:
(OK the cab didn’t go great with the lobster risotto. But everything was delicious.
Lettie likes this photo I guess!
Lovely dinner!
