At Longman & Eagle: 1+2 their menu, 3 rabbit paté, giardinière, sourdough tartines, $9; 4 roasted marrow bones, red onion jam, sea salt, and sourdough crostinis, $10; 5 Nichols Farm pot of pickles, summer vegetables, La Boulangerie marble rye, Wüthrich butter, and sea salt, $8; 6 salad of compressed melon & fig, Werp Farm greens, Humbolt Fog chevre, toasted pine nuts, honey-chili vinaigrette, $11; 7 pastrami cured sweetbreads, Gruyere, pumpernickel, sauerkraut, Thousand Island dressing $13; 8 Slagel Family Farm goat sausage, eggplant baba, compressed apricot basil, and black olive caramel, $13; 9 seared Hudson Valley duck testicles, peas, bacon, romaine, pickled cherries, and mushroom puree, $14; 10 Slagel Family Farms burger, aged Widmer’s cheddar, Neuske’s bacon, beef fat fries, and brioche, $12. I probably wouldn't recommend the duck testicles — not because of WHAT they are, but simply because they felt like and tasted similar to cannellini beans. I wish they had more flavor + oomph. The must order items on the menu? My vote goes to the roasted bone marrows — they were quite unctuous and succulent in the best possible way. The rabbit paté is the other "yes, please" on the menu. The lightness in this dish is created by the additional fat — making it seem ALMOST healthy enough for one to devour the entire order on their own.
