Lost Dog

since it's restaurant week in binghamton, steph and i decided to check out the Lost Dog Cafe, a place we've wanted to try since we moved up here. we got there at 8(pm) and the place was packed. we got the last available seat.

the decor was what you might expect. bare brick, open ceiling, and artsy furnishings. but what made it all work was the assortment of japanese lanterns hanging from the ceiling. from big globes throughout the eatery to the squares and ovals over the bar, these fixtures gave the place that 'unique' feel.

the food was great. steph and i each ordered dessert. steph tried the flour-less chocolate cake, which was so rich i had to help her finish it. i had the 'geisha' - a dessert sushi made primarily of deep fried cheescake. it was delicious, and with my penchant for deep frying on my own i've decided to undertake trying it at home in the fry-daddy.

if you're looking for a classy place to spend an evening out, the Lost Dog Cafe is an excellent choice.
