text: Please take note This is the first review of any type that I have ever writtennnKitchen reminds me of a movie Of course I will have to qualify that statement but first let me say the following in all my years of eating out Kitchen gave me an absolute first In an attempt to be hip if an open kitchen concept can be considered as much they offered me a glimpse into their inner workings What amazed me and my girlfriend was they were not working I mean Each chef was inexplicably staring out over the dining area seemingly without a care in the world Now this place must seat people with line cookschefs so either they were incredibly good at their jobs or there was more to this story Unfortunately before I could ponder this any further we were seated and promptly attended by Sarah She was certainly the highlight of the evening and thus through the act of choosing drinks and placing our order my previous observation evaporated Then the food arrived It was now that my previous observation bubbled back to the forefront The math is pretty simple Three line cooks people multiple microwave ovens which does not have to be a problem or does itn nI had the pork tenderloin which it was not It came with potatoes which technically they still were but not for much longer These things tasted like they had been reheated refrigerated reheated and refrigerated for about a week So in my attempt to eat those things I inadvertently saved a complete stranger from a similar fate I took a potato for you bravo for my good deed Alas Kitchen staff will be forced to make another bushelful for next weeks victims No I do not mean patrons too harsh Monday and Tuesday probably patrons Wednesday Thursday Friday and Saturday definitely VICTIMS So one way or the other everyone wanting to eat potatoes at Kitchen will get an opportunity nnI know it seems a little insane to talk about the potatoes but here is the rub my girlfriends Mac and Cheese was prepared with the same loving care So here we are full circle and Kitchen still reminds me of a movie Remember a time when you could not wait to see a certain new release You know the one the one you never saw because David Edelstein or Roger Ebert reviewed the film and said that fill the blank with your favorite star was sleep walking through hisher performance Guess what KITCHEN is that blank Wow And a last word to those guys staring off into space the ones standing behind all that fancy commercial cooking equipment pretending to be cooks do not let the door hit you on the way out nnNow it would be all well and good to blame the cook staff and they must shoulder most of the blame But I have to ask who is testing this menu I will not even start on the small salad oh alright fresh and easy rinse before eating What we have here is a failure to communicate or maybe This is a trickle down economics problem Be it a movie quotation or political rhetoric either way Kitchen you are a out of
