So, Parents 20th wedding anniversery. A family friend's son is a chef at the Tribune and recommened it. The building the Tribune is in, amazing. Upstairs there is this cool lounge, then you walk down a set of stairs and to your right there is the wine room, you walk into this dark room where all the tables are set. I went in to the Tribune thinking it was this stuck up, fancy place. But if you went in there with jeans and a polo shirt you'd fit right in.
There were eight of us, promptly seated, the Waiter we had (forgot his name..) was awsome. All the staff there are great. For 8 it worked out to about $80 a person, not so bad. The portions are pretty big, but everything is so good. There is a ton of differant stuff, a few salads, some fish, pasta, normal stuff. But at the bottom of the menu they have 'House Roasts For Two or More To Share'. Châteaubriand Medium Rare is freaking amazing.
The Tribune does a sort of special thing, they have duck for two to share. When your done, you get the tag from the duck that will say what number it was from Cunard (1076 for us). Then you get to sign the duck book, put what ever message in there you like. I read some of the stuff put in there, and holy people dont hold back.
If you get the chance, check it out. The duck is so good.
