This week I got the chance to go to Murray Street Restaurant again! I have now been for brunch, lunch and dinner! I have always been super happy with my dinning experience at Murray Street. The restaurant has awesome wood floors, a great bar and cool walls (one seems to be made out of different pieces of wood). It’s definitely a cool place to be. I also really like the staff, they have always been very helpful suggesting drinks and what’s good on the menu!
Friday I was at Murray Street for lunch. The great thing about the lunch menu is that it’s all $14! My bill (I only had water) was just over $15! Its a great deal for such great food! For lunch I got the pulled pork sandwich, it was really good! The pork is awesome, they use heritage large black pig braised shoulder, heritage black pig tastes so much more porky! The barbeque sauce is really interesting, I couldn’t figure out what was in it, so I asked! What the server could remember was that there was coffee, chocolate, chillies, brown sugar, ketchup, cumin and other things! Needless to say I really liked it, it got me thinking! What made the sandwich really good was that it was held together in an Art-Is-In bread bun! Instead of fries or a salad, the sandwich was served with baked beans with huge chunks of pork! If you can’t eat pork for any reason, not the meal for you, but I will happily take it off your hands! The baked beans came in a cool little cast-iron cauldron and were great on a cold day.
My friend had the mac and cheese, which is actually spaetzle and cheese. She really enjoyed it and it looked awesome served in a cast-iron skillet. It came with a coleslaw which again was intriguing!
The craziest part of our meal was that as we were finishing, Tom Green, sat down with a couple of friends right next to us! You know your restaurant is doing well when the celebs start showing up! I never know what to do when a celeb comes and sits close to you! Glad were not Hollywood!
Anyways I would strongly recommend Murray Street Restaurant. The lunch is by far the best value but all of the meals are great! Next time I post about them hopefully it will be about their smoked pig’s head!!! Check out some more pictures below!
