York Street

This will not be negative. I have nothing but good things to say about York Street. Carlton and I went tonight, a Wednesday night. Nothing in particular to celebrate, just the start of a trial for Carlton and, well, a little celebration on my part -- the hospital where I work was named among the top 10 in the nation by a reputable publication... Basically, our daughter is out of town this week. We are not celebrating that fact, just enjoying a grown-ups-only time. And York Street is our destination of choice, second only to Nana Grill. So...
I arrived early (7:50 p.m.), after a manicure following a long, but joyful day at the office. I ordered prosecco and nibbled on the complimentary salted almonds, and the lemon and rosemary (and other unknown herbs) infused olives. When Carlton arrived, he insisted on his own glass of prosecco. We toasted our good fortunes -- and, yes, we have many, regardless of the economy and other constant worries. Carlton started with a potato soup, and I had a fennel, asparagus and poached salmon salad. Our main courses were fish dishes, and we opted for an "old world" chardonnay. The restaurant employs a sommelier, which is always helpful. So, this much accoladed restaurant is always a winner. If you are ever in Dallas, it's a must-find.
