My
fist
visit
and
surely
not
my
last
at
Comedor!
My
sister
was
in
town
visiting
and
we
were
in
the
mood
for
drinks
and
bites
while
catching
up.
It
was
raining
and
Monday,
and
finding
parking
downtown
is
always
a
challenge.
The
adjacent
garage
with
valet
parking
was
perfect.
($12).
I’m
glad
I
was
with
my
sister,
who’s
son
works
there
and
had
been
before
or
I
might
have
missed
the
entrance.
The
matte
black
metal
door
tucked
into
a
corner
is
subtle
and
easy
to
miss.
Once
inside,
the
focus
is
the
back
wall;
incredible
selection
of
spirits;
tequilas
and
mezcals.
Behind
the
liquor
shelving,
a
glass
brick
wall
obscures
the
street
view
but
allows
natural
light
through.
I
found
it
really
relaxing
watching
the
light
change
as
the
sun
set,
the
staff
placing
small
candles
along
the
shelves
creating
an
intimate
feel.
The
bar
runs
nearly
the
length
of
the
long,
rectangular
seating
area,
the
seating
was
solid
and
comfortable,
and
even
with
a
large
group
of
maybe
18
folks
behind
us,
my
sister
and
I
could
converse
without
yelling.
The
room
has
tons
of
natural
light
thanks
to
the
wall
of
floor
to
ceiling
(a
very
high
ceiling
too!)
windows
looking
out
to
an
atrium
for
outdoor
seating.
It
would
be
really
fun
to
have
a
it
booked
for
a
private
party.
Our
bar
server
Mason,
was
adorable,
very
professional,
and
made
the
best
margaritas!
We
both
picked
the
same
one,
The
Comedor
margarita
and
I
enjoyed
watching
him
expertly
shake
them
to
perfection.
I
could
have
enjoyed
a
few
more
but
had
a
long
drive
ahead
so
I
focused
on
the
food
instead.
Oh
what
incredible
food!
Everything
is
served
small
plate
style
for
sharing,
artfully
presented
with
enough
per
order
to
enjoy
but
not
be
bored
by
the
last
bite.
The
unique
recipes
created
with
incredibly
fresh
ingredients
made
each
bite
memorable.
We
had
the
oysters
on
the
half
shell
(2
per
order),
not
something
I
normally
would
order
but
was
glad
I
tried.
So
fresh,
with
a
hint
of
brine
and
savory
flavors.
Then
we
had
an
unusual
dish;
several
pieces
of
(seaweed?)
lightly
fried
earthyness,
hiding
two
each
of
delicately
prepared
sushi
style
fish
that
melted
in
the
mouth,
all
swirled
in
an
incredible
(watermelon?)
smooth
salsa
sauce
that
if
there
had
been
bread
I’d
have
mopped
the
bowl
clean.
Next
we
feasted
on
the
bone
marrow
tacos….oh
yes
please!
The
most
tender
red
corn
tortillas
served
along
with
two
large
beef
bones
atop
lightly
dressed
and
warmed
kale,
garnished
with
red
onion.
This
was
outstanding!
I’ve
made
bone
marrow
before
and
this
was
expertly
prepared
and
not
something
to
miss.
We
also
had
(3
large)
the
taquito
style
taco
plate,(3
per)
served
with
another
sauce
that
we
couldn’t
get
enough.
Very
delicious!
Slowing
down,an
order
of
the
mild
yet
soothing
hot
lemongrass
and
ginger
tea
was
perfect
with
our
two
desserts.
Dessert
one:
A
very
large
cup
of
rich
cafe
de
Olla,
topped
with
a
creamy,
lightly
sweet
dulce
de
lecha
whipped
(mouse?)
concoction
(I’d
take
a
bowl
of
that,
please!)
and
finished
with
a
stout
churro
nestled
inside
the
rim
of
the
cup.
I’ll
admit
the
churro
was
a
challenge
to
break
apart
for
sharing.
Being
sturdy
enough
to
require
more
than
a
spoon,
it
floated
on
the
cream;
not
absorbing
the
hot
coffee
below,
remaining
crispy.
I
ended
up
taking
it
home,
and
every
last
cinnamon
sugar
coated
morsel
was
consumed.
The
gorgeous,
creamy
Dulce
de
leche
was
the
star
of
that
dessert
in
my
opinion.
Dessert
2;
Two
unassuming
spheres,
approx
2”
in
diameter.
One
coated
in
a
colorful
mix
of
sesame
seeds
artfully
protecting
the
extraordinary
fresh
churned
Carmel
ice
cream
beneath.
TIP:
Scoop
the
ice
cream
onto
your
spoon
then
scoop
some
from
the
other
sphere;
a
super
dark,
barely
sweetened,
rich,
dense,
chocolate
fudge
meets
a
brownie
type
confection
with
a
warm
Carmel
surprise
center.
Combing
the
three
flavors
onto
one
spoonful
was
a
delicious
experience
and
lovely
way
to
end
the
meal.
Thank
you
Comedor!
