Had a great meal at Cru last night. This was my second visit, but the last was years ago. Not much new to report except that the food is still excellent; the wine list still requires more time than is left in the universe to wade through; and bringing along someone who can pick up the check is still strongly recommended.
Before going I called my friend Alex M., who used to be a sommalier at Cru, to see if he could recommend any hidden gems on the list (and, yeah, to see if he could get me some vip treatment) and he said - I kid you not -there weren't any hidden values left on the list because Skinny and his friends had drunk them all.
Thanks a lot Skinny!
