Twenty-Five Forty (Old town): Restaurant Revisit Review

Went to Twenty-Five Forty recently with SuperBoy (it was supposed to be a date but the babysitter couldn't come).

Quick report:
--Service a little slow to start as usual, but they're working hard to make the good food

--Bread basket: just as delicious if not more than usual; SB's eyes lit up when he tasted the corn bread mini-muffins and he kept taking more bread

--Zucchini soup: blander than the soups I've had there before, but ok

--Side salad: not as good as I remembered, ok. 

--Eggplant parmesan ravioli (minus bacon): SO GOOD. They make the best fresh pasta here. Sauce was delicious too. Not a huge portion, but would get again.

--CH got rigatoni and enjoyed it a lot. He also got bratwurst with fresh sauerkraut and he seemed to like that too

--SB's grilled cheese sandwich: a good buy for $10 (since it's not only for kids). He got cheddar only. Was grilled on a delicious baguette/panini roll, with good cheddar; fresh steakhouse fries on the side; and some spring mix.

--Shoyu cosmo. Very tasty. Couldn't tell the difference between that and a real vodka cosmo.

So a couple of missteps tonight, whereas I never had anything less than superlative here before. But we would still come again.
