Grand
Duke's
(63rd
&
Harlem)
little
brother/sister!
I
had
a
Groupon
from
the
place
that
was
nearing
expiration
-
the
only
reason
I
hadn't
gone
is
that
it's
kind
of
far
and
inconvenient
for
me.
But
knowing
that
the
food
would
be
along
the
lines
of
the
Lithuanian
food
at
its
sister
restaurant,
I
knew
it
would
be
well
worth
the
trip.
Started
out
with
a
cup
of
mushroom
barley
soup
-
good
stuff,
though
suspiciously
much
like
the
sauce
that
adorns
several
entrée
offerings.
But
that's
OK
-
it's
still
good.
As
they
say,
"when
in
Lithuania,
do
as
the
Lithuanians
do"
-
that
includes
ordering
a
half
liter
of
Svyturys
beer.
Goes
great
with
dinner
-
would've
ordered
more,
but
the
meal
fills
one
up
pretty
well,
so
more
beer
isn't
always
a
good
idea.
Time
for
dinner.
As
usual,
I
have
a
tough
time
figuring
out
just
what
I
want
-
there
are
soooo
many
good
options.
I
decided
to
do
a
"Make
your
own
Combo"
-
three
decent
sized
options
from
the
dinner
menu
at
$18.99.
I
had
to
order
potato
pancakes
as
the
ones
at
GD's
are
awesome
(I've
ordered
the
dinner
potato
pancake
dish
at
GD
as
an
entrée
and
taken
some
home
too).
The
potato
pancakes
here
were
good
-
though
could
have
been
crispier
-
they
were
a
little
mushy.
Next
-
breaded
pork!
This
was
awesome
as
expected
-
served
over
some
mashed
potatoes
which
were
a
little
bit
of
overkill
with
the
potato
pancakes.
This
had
the
"soup
sauce"
on
it
that
I
previously
mentioned.
Finally
-
my
third
option
on
the
combo...
Siberian
Dumplings
with
Pork.
This
was
something
new
to
me
and
I
like
to
try
different
stuff
-
but
often
get
into
the
trap
of
ordering
things
I've
had
and
loved
before.
Well...
add
another
item
to
that
category!
These
were
like
raviolis
with
a
thinner
pasta
around
the
meat
in
a
light
broth
with
a
fresh
pork-like
bacon
topping
on
the
dish.
Wowsa.
Flavor
and
then
some
-
if
bacon
lovers
stumbled
upon
this
dish,
pig
farmers
wouldn't
be
able
to
keep
up
with
demand.
I
decide
to
take
one
of
the
potato
pancakes
home
-
which
left
a
little
room
for
dessert.
They
had
a
turtle
cheesecake
that
looked
interesting,
so
I
ordered
it.
Another
hit!
This
was
a
piece
of
good
cheesecake
with
a
layer
of
hot
fudge-like
chocolate
between
the
graham
cracker
crust
and
the
cheesecake
at
the
tip
of
the
serving
-
and
going
back
about
halfway.
But
here's
the
kicker
-
it
was
warm
while
the
cheesecake
itself
was
cold.
Not
entirely
sure
how
they
managed
to
do
that!
Now
-
after
a
gangbuster
review
like
this,
five
stars
would
usually
follow.
But
here's
the
thing
-
the
place
has
its
"rough
edges".
Overall,
the
servers
are
nice
-
but
they
miss
things.
They
brought
me
a
bread
basket,
but
no
plate
(used
the
plate
that
the
cup
of
soup
was
on).
Also.
no
silverware
or
napkin
at
the
table
-
had
to
ask
for
that.
They
have
about
28
spot
lights
on
the
ceiling
-
12
were
out
-
and
it
didn't
look
as
if
they
were
out
"by
design".
Entrée
was
slow
to
come
out
as
well
-
I
wasn't
in
a
hurry
anyway,
but
it
was
a
little
longer
than
what
would
be
"usual".
So
given
the
hiccups
-
fours
stars
is
appropriate.
I'll
definitely
be
back
though.
