Our ravioli was filled with pecorino cheese and fig marmalade and drenched in buttery sauce with shitake mushrooms. We were excited about the miniature tacos that were filled with homemade sausage. They often serve beef steak tartare and delicious homemade French fries. Burrata (to us they served it with anchovies, olive oil, dill, and red pepper), a spread or two (we got chicken liver pâté with smoked bacon), some vegetables (raw butternut squash strips went well with feta cheese and pumpkin seed oil), and more. And what will be for dinner? Something different every week (they only have one menu), but first a very diverse selection of appetizers that are prepared in such a way that the whole table can share them. The only contrast is a tall wall that is filled with wine bottles and guarantees that you will not only eat but also drink well here. The interior is wonderful, and with just a few tables. But what do we do then these friends are busy? Visit Birdie Foodielab, a restaurant that will replace them just fine. It won’t be some complicated haute cuisine, but food that is meant to be shared with loved ones and that makes us feel good. We all have friends that are very good cooks when we visit them, it is always pleasant, because we know we will eat well there.
