Our 2 hour excursion around Greenwich Village and 45 minute wait was well worth the delectable meal at Pearl Oyster Bar! Beat from a full day of walking around Manhattan, Derrick, Suiki and I ordered as soon as we were seated in the bustling restaurant - oysters, mussels in wine sauce, crab cakes, and a lobster roll.
To pair with the seafood, I had a glass of 2006 Chablis by Joseph Drouhin Laforet. The wine was light and crisp, with hints of lemon, citrus, and slight almond. This fresh wine was fabulous to begin with and went elegantly with all our dishes.
Every course was flawlessly divine (except the missing oyster from the dozen that the restaurant later made up for). The most memorable plate was the Lobster Roll; it was amazing! A half pound of large sumptuous lobster chunks marinated in the perfect light mayo sauce, sandwiched by a soft, slightly sweet, butter roll shaped like a hot dog bun. Mmm... It was heavenly.
