In an effort to recover from the Teatro Goldoni disappointment we decided to try someplace closer to home, Clarendon's Liberty Tavern. K was out and about, and let's face it, it's cold outside, so she picked up takeout (that's right, I don't need to leave the house). I called in the order (kudo's to the telephone guy, very polite).
The online menus are confusing as hell (it's unclear what items are offered when and where), so random choice it was. We had the mussel pizza (crushed tomato, garlic, oregano, grilled scallion, chiles, pecorino, provolone). Really nice sauce and crust, but a bit too salty on the cheeses. We added a cubano panino (roasted pork, Edward’s country ham, Tom’s swiss, smoked pepper aioli). This was perfectly ok, but the cubano at Eatbar is better. This came with a side order of split pea soup: a nice touch on a cold day, good flavor, but a bit thin (soup seems to be a problem in the area, the only truly great one I've had is the black bean at Oyamel).
