2/15/10 Mmm. Klee= Delicious!

So in honor of the day off, I decided to splurge and treat myself to a nice dinner. Firstly, I'd like to start by plugging OpenTable.com, which is quite honestly a beautiful invention. I was able to see a list of all of the NYC area restaurant according to availability. On top of that, It gave me full descriptions, menus and all I'd need to make the right choice. And it paid off.

I went to Klee, a little place on 22nd & 9th Avenue. The ambience was gorgeous and the food decadent. Very intricate dishes with great flavor. The portions were just perfect as well, and right off the bat I recommend the Duck Pate. In case you want to know more about the restaurant, here's what the OpenTable profile writes:

"Chef-owner Daniel Angerer's contemporary Green Market driven cuisine incorporates flavors and ingredients from Europe and America, including Wagyu beef steak frites, Long Island duckling and of course his own version of Wiener schnitzel, among other contemporary takes on Austrian classics. Tasty small bites, first and second courses as well as a selection of daily pastas and specialties will have diners fighting over which day of the week to dine at Klee. Situated on the still civilized 9th Avenue Strip of Chelsea, north of the Meat Packing District. This European American Brasserie is a warm and elegant place to dine. Klee is an excellent choice for pre-theater goers located only a few blocks from the Atlantic, Joyce and Irish Repertory theaters and only blocks from Madison Square Garden and the City's central theater district and is open for lunch, brunch and dinner."

So leaving at that, I'm happy and full. :)
