Or rather, BNO, if you’re in the know, or are cool.

If you worked at First Boston Corporation in the 80’s (now known as CSFB, or Credit Suisse First Boston), odds are you were somewhat cool. If you worked in the department that I did, while you w ... Continue reading »

  • Since you typically review things, I was waiting for a review of the food with all the usual details. I guess I will just have to go myself or maybe you might treat after being treated.
  • To avoid having to treat, I'll say a few more words about the food. ;-)

    First, I did say that my Sirloin steak was perfect, so that was the "main" review. I had a Caesar Salad to begin. As I described it to my wife afterwards, it was both fantastic and enormous. I was the last one to finish eating their appetizer, but I loved every bite.

    For sides, we had asparagus (I only had one spear, and it was very good), mushrooms (for some reason, I didn't grab any, though I like mushrooms a lot) and hash-brown potatoes (which I had a few bites of, and they were excellent as well).

    I passed on dessert, though the ones that showed up for the rest of them looked great, in particular, the Strawberrys Romanoff. I had a cappuccino, which was very good. Of course, we had dessert wine as well (after all of the Bordeaux's that we had with the meal itself).

    All-in-all, a fantastic meal (not cheap, by any standard). The only (potential) downside of Sparks (which wasn't a problem for us!), is that it's not a place for "intimate conversation". If you need to have a quiet business discussion, or you're on a first date, this might not be the place for you.
  • Fun to hear about your BNO. Sounds like a great group. We had a fun time in Thailand-we'll catch you up soon.
