Our restaurant is built on expert preparation, obsessive attention to detail, and finesse. With our new fall menu out, now is the time to come experience Forest.

We spend a lot of time obsessing over our own dining rooms, but every hospitality professional has a very specific list of local allegiances.

Welcome to Episode 06 of Table Talk with Chickpea Hospitality: “A Few of Our Favorite Things.” 

This week, we’re trading notes on our favorite local orders: everything from the Number 10 at Pho Que Huong and the Buns and Patties (Buns & Patties) cheeseburger, to Giovanni’s (Giovanni's Ristorante) lasagna and Bommarito’s (Bommarito Bakery) Italian subs.

There is also a highly specific debate regarding the Luxe (Luxe Bar & Grill) Cajun wings, and the undeniable staying power of a Lafayette (Lafayette Coney Island) coney. 

Consider this an open invitation to sit in on the conversation.

And stay tuned for more...

BRANZINO - Chef Talia really created a masterpiece with this one. Skinless branzino, baked in butter with a roasted butternut squash boullabaise, sauteed spinach, and diced roasted squash. Perfection.
