Oh No - Majolica is closing on Sat!

Hey everyone - I just tried to make a reservation at Majolica for next Wednesday and the hostess told us that their last day is Saturday! They still have some tables available for Friday if anyone wants to go before they close their doors. :(

Dinner at Chinnar on Sat - any suggestions?

Hello! I am taking my two sisters to Chinnar (in Berwyn) this Saturday, but I have never been there before... and honestly, I don't know much about Indian cuisine (other than I like it). Does anyone have any suggestions for dinner - items we shouldn't miss, how much to order, etc?

Thanks so much!

Great dinner in Tysons Corner area?

Thanks so much for all the suggestions - I think we'll do Corner Bistro and Shamshiry. We love tapas and Mediterranean/Persian! Looking forward to our visit!

Updated King of Prussia Dining?

I lived in KoP for 3 years and really like Wild Rice! It's Asian cuisine, good sushi...

Appropriate dress for Gayle?

We are going to Gayle on Saturday with some out-of-town friends, and they want to know what they should bring to wear... we haven't been there before and they're packing today. :) Are nice jeans and a sweater okay? Blazer necessary?

Thanks!

Anything good in Valley Forge-King of Prussia???

If you like Chinese/Japanese, I really suggest Wild Rice - it's on 202 on the way to Norristown, in the same plaza as Marshalls. My husband and I lived in KoP for three years and that is one of our favorites.

Great dinner in Tysons Corner area?

My husband has a seminar at the Ritz Carlton in Tysons Corner at the end of March, and I'll be joining him for a couple days. I think we'll venture into DC at least once for dinner, but for the other evenings, we'll probably stay in Virginia. From what I've seen there's a bunch of "mall food" around the hotel, and a fancy place at the hotel that's currently closed... any suggestions? We won't mind driving a bit!

Thanks!

Large Group Dinner in King of Prussia?

Wild Rice is quite good, and a little farther from the mall...

Can a "cautious eater" be happy at Lacroix?

That all sounds amazing to me, but - really? The rabbit came with a side of air??? How is that plated?

Can a "cautious eater" be happy at Lacroix?

Thanks to saturninus, I am planning on making dinner reservations at Lacroix. I am a little nervous though - my husband is a self-described "cautious eater" and the menu I found online looks intimidating!

He's not truly picky - he WILL eat seafood, even true sushi - he doesn't like things like mushrooms, asparagus... you get the idea. And if there's a word he doesn't recognize in an item description, he gets a litte twitchy.

He's not close-minded though, loves good food, and he won't say he doesn't want to go... I just need to hear form some people who have been there!

Oh - and what is the dress code like?

Thanks

Help! James, Gayle, BPerrier, Marigold, Lacroix...?

My husband and I live in the western suburbs and rarely venture downtown for dinner, but we have good friends coming from out of town and would like to take them into the city.

We're going out on Saturday, Mar 1 - since it's coming up, I can't get reservations at some places, but there seems to be hope for the following restaurants. I would LOVE any feedback! We've never been to any of these...

James
Gayle
Brasserie Perrier (I actually already made reservations here, but then have read less-than-great reviews)
Marigold Kitchen (I know the chef and menu recently changed)
Lacroix (I've only seen great reviews, but my husband is a bit of a "cautious eater" and the menu looks a little intimidating)

Thanks for any thoughts!
