Walnut Lane by Jonathan Waxman Twitter/X Food Review

Braised Short Rib at Walnut Lane by Jonathan Waxman

Best of @wonder starts with one of my favorite chefs, @chefjwaxman and Walnut Lane. His Braised Short Rib is a near-masterpiece (for carryout) despite its $$ price ($32.95) and a few too many (5!) pearl onions. The mash is divine, ditto for the gravy and the meat... tender as a lullaby. A- Almost as good, WT's surprising Rigatoni with Vegetable Bolognese ($17.95) which tastes exactly the same as the real deal. Vegetarians rejoice: That bolognese is surreal, and the bowl is super filling. Our only regret? Not enough basil. B+
Grade: B+
