Dinner at Foundry on Elm

今日は夫のリクエストで Davis Square にある Foundry on Elm に行くことに。家からも近く、車を止めるところも比較的簡単に見つかるので疲れている金曜日には便利です。8時に予約したのですが、着いたときはまだ席が空いてなくて15分ほど待たされました。 Tonight my husband suggested going to Foundry on Elm in Davis Square.  It is close to our home and relatively easy to find a parking spot, so it is convenient for us especially on Fridays when we are very tired.  I made a reservation at 8 pm, but we had to wait a little bit until our table became ready.

金曜日の夜ということで、お店は超満員。特に私達の席はバーのすぐ近くだったので、かなりうるさかったです。おなかがすいていて、食べ物に集中してたのでそれほど気にはなりませんでしたが。 Since it was the Friday night, the restaurant was very crowded (especially in the bar area).  Unfortunately our table was neat the bar area and it was very noisy, but I was so hungry that all my focus was on food and I didn't mind the noise level too much.

まずはマッシュルームとチーズのフラットブレッド。 First we ordered the mushroom and cheese (I forgot what kind of cheese it was) flat bread.

生地はかなり薄く、ピザほど重くなくて食べやすいです。 The bread was very thin and light.  It was very good.

私はコブサラダ。チキン、ベーコン、卵などが入っていてボリュームたっぷり。アボカドがクリーミーで、レタスやその他の野菜も新鮮で満足。 I ordered the Cobb salad.  It had chicken, bacon, eggs and fresh vegetables.  I loved the creaminess of avocado.  Also, the dressing was served separately, so I didn't have to eat the salad floating in the dressing which is often the case when I order any salad.

夫はサーロインのステーキ。ライスとオクラのガンボが一緒に付いてきました。 My husband ordered the dry-aged sirloin.  It came with the Cajun dirty rice and okura gambo.

お肉は、中はまだピンク色でジューシーでけっこういけます。食べ切れなかった分はお持ち帰りにしてもらって次の日の朝ごはんに。 The meat was properly cooked and juicy.  I liked the spiciness of the rice and gambo.  He couldn't finish it, so we took it home and had it as a part of our breakfast next morning.
