Tizi Melloul

Dinner. We just got 5 appetizers. Hummus: just OK, and a crazy ton of it. "Curried" tuna tartare: good, and not curry-ish at all. Spinach salad with weird square blobs of cheese and pine nuts and bacon: just OK -- the cheese and nuts were narsty. Pulled pork ribs w/ grilled shrimp: good. Cheese crisps: basically gooey cheese inside of a baklava pastry shell: just OK.

The free bread and dipping oil was pretty darn good actually, better than some of the stuff we paid for. We ended with ginger creme brulee that was neither gingery nor particularly good.

Cool room, decent service, but unspectacular food, and a somewhat inconvenient location.
