-MAY-
What a fun night. It was my pick for May. We kept dinner quick and simple since we had show tickets. We started at the Lawrence Food Hall on Butler Street in Lawrenceville. It is the same concept as the Federal Galley with a great bar, four restaurants and Leona’s ice cream. The space is great, open, multi-level and could be a nice place to watch sports. You can order at each restaurant spot using a QR code and pick up, or you can use the QR code at your table and they deliver your food.
We ordered corn bread and placed an order at Toma – arancini ($13), a huge piece of focaccia Margarita pizza ($8) and polenta with 4 small meatballs ($25).
The arancini was crispy on the outside with rice and melted cheese on the inside.
The pizza was delicious.
For the price, the polenta and meatballs were a very small portion and was on the bland side.
Leona’s serves scooped ice cream, ice cream sandwiches and pints. If you are looking for a relaxing place to meet in that area, stop by but look for the sign “LH”.
Then we went to the West End to see the Gargaro Production of Million $ Quartet. It was exhilarating. Every one of them knocked themselves out and the performance was outstanding. Jerry Lee Lewis was talented and nailed the role. I’ve never seen a bass player use his instrument like that. We were smiling long after the show. Great time!!
