Restaurant 213
Sunday, November 2, Margaret took the three of us to "213" a marvelous restaurant just south of  Salisbury. Jim Hughes is the owner and chef. He instituted a prix fixe Sunday menu and we took advantage of the $35 per person for the five course dinner. We highly recommend this.
Tom had a pair of Manhattans ($10/each) Margaret had a Dewars and Soda, and Lyd had a pair of the same ($8/each)
Jillian was our server The Amuse Boche was an Asparagus Soup
Lyd and Margaret each had the Oysters 213, A Jim Hughes' Original of Local Oysters baked with a blend of aromatic greens; no spinach. Tom chose the Caesar Salad, a make-your-own combination of Prosciutto-wrapped hearts of romaine, parmigiano reggiano cheese, marinated anchovies and house-made croutons and dressing.
The courses were separated by a fruit sorbet.
Lyd selected Pepper-Encrusted Flat Iron Steak, a peppercorn encrusted tender cut steak, grilled, and served with a brandy green peppercorn sauce. Margaret chose the Breast of Chicken Danielle, a frenched local chicken breast, quickly seared and oven-braised with baby artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes, with risotto. Tom selected Rockfish 213, fresh local rockfish, baked and topped with lump crab meat and finished with a tarragon sun-dried tomato burre blanc.
Lyd and Margaret each chose the Chocolate Sheba 213, a flourless chocolate cake with a warm chocolate center. Tom selected the Crème Brûlée, a rich egg custard with a caramelized crust.
The finalé featured the signature 213 Breakfast Scones
