Go for the soup of the day. Guaranteed to be good every time. Stay for the mussels.

Order the potato, smoked bacon and clam soup. The presentation was great and it tasted fantastic! Check your diet at the door. It's loaded with cream and butter but a worthy cheat.

If you like gin and want to try a different drink (which originated in 1916) ask for an "Aviation"
