Moishes has
been a fixture on the Main since 1938 (the original Moishe was a waiter
who won the restaurant from his boss in a poker game).
Moishes is moving into modernity with a top-to-bottom makeover,
featuring a beautiful new ceiling, exposed brick, modern lighting, and
up-to-date art, as well as the new 3
Hours to Midnight menu ($25 for appetizer, main and coffee/tea)
served weekends from 9 p.m. to midnight. We stopped in for a pre-party
nosh, opting for lush organic salmon tartare, followed by a scrumptious
lobster roll that inspired memories of Maine, as well as a borrowed bite
from our dining companions perfectly pink-in-the-middle petit filet. But
dont fret! You can still fill up on Moishes coleslaw, pickles, and
famous Monte Carlo potatoes, and finish with a creamy and custardy mille
feuille for dessert.
Dont forget to nicely ask the Maitre D for a secret piece of
DubbleBubble on your way out. JN
