Went to The Main on Main. Extremely mediocre pub-style Greek. I had the too-large roast lamb platter that was pretty fatty.

The sour blossom cocktail was pretty and tasty! Perhaps a little too sour, could have used a bit more sweetness. With St. Germaine and elderflower.

For dinner, Turmeric Chicken Skewers with Thai Tomato Salad and Coconut Rice, from Fresh Prep.

The tomatoes were sad winter ones. But! Really tasty with a simple dressing of sesame oil, fish sauce, and rice vinegar. Also shallots, cilantro, and a Thai red chile, plus salt and pepper.

Looking around for other Thai Tomato Salad recipes, they’re all very similar. Fish sauce is key. Lime juice instead of rice vinegar in some.
