After the Joe's Pub concert, Pux and I stumbled down the rainy night looking for a decent bar. We came across a charming and small restaurant that happened to have wine bottle prices 1/2 off. Who could resist? Not us. So without much ado, we climbed the stairs into Nolita House.
After choosing wine (quite a simple choice - what was the cheapest wine, divide by two, is that price acceptable? Wait, $16 for a bottle of wine at a restaurant? Why yes please. Don't judge - I'm getting a mortgage shortly (knock on wood, should everything go through properly, and I don't have $ to spare!). They also had a mac and cheese special (three different kinds), so I chose that for dinner.
The food was good. Well, again I'm going to be honest ,b/c apparently that is the thing I do tonight while blogging. I'm not a huge mac and cheese fan: I know that it's comfort food for many, but perhaps not for me simply because I never really had it as a child. It's a U.S. thing for me. But it's tasty, I'll grant you that. Not exactly a sophisticated meal out -- although some would argue who needs sophistication when you've got warm cheese melted on your, hmmm, mac, but still. Tasty and I was happy and I would probably order it again, but only if it were available as a special and I got to order the different samplers (there was a lobster flavor, a popeye chicken flavor and something else, which escapes me).
A decent place -- GREAT music (a lot of the Beatles, for example). I would recommend, particularly if you are in the area.
