Fish Out of Water

This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 307: Magpie Cafe

S and I had our rescheduled Happy Hour tonight and planned to go to Shady Lady, but it was way too crowded and loud. Instead, we ended up next door at Magpie Cafe:



I've been to Magpie a couple of times before, although it's not in the usual rotation for Mr. E and me. Many people love this venue for its fresh and local cuisine, but we tend to find it a bit off-putting due to spotty or lackadaisical customer service and slightly high prices.

S and I had a lovely time, however, and shared the Farmstead Cheese Plate, which was very tasty. And Mr. E and I have definitely put this on the list to try for brunch, now that Magpie is actually open on weekends for more extended hours.
