Yesterday, I had a belated "goodbye" lunch with my awesome colleagues from the job I recently left. They are a wonderful group of extremely smart and hilarious, fun women that I am lucky to have worked with and hope to in some capacity again in the future.And, on to the food (of course) - we went to The Grey Dog, a great little cafe in Chelsea that's perfect for lunch (check out their menu). I've walked by this place a million times, but never went in - and am very happy to have finally been introduced to it (awesome recommendation, Dre!).Among the 6 of us, we ordered:
Seared Tuna & Avocado Taco (x2)
BLT
Veggie Press (spinach, roasted artichokes, roasted peppers and herbed goat cheese) (x2) - I had mine on olive bread, which was delicious
Root Vegetable Soup (that clearly included beets - look at that color!
The food was all-around solid. I love the bread choices for sandwiches - olive is a favorite of mine and while I see it at bakeries quite often, it isn't as common as an option in an eatery. The only thing I'd do differently next time is ask if I could have one of their "cute salads" (Grey Dog's words, not mine) on the side of a sandwich vs. chips - I didn't realize that's what came on the side, and could have done without.Great lunch, great group, great way to start off the week yesterday! Thanks so much again Dre/Steph/Lora/Liz/Jodie :)
