Comments on: Lunch Therapy http://www.saltshaker.net/20070604/lunch-therapy Casting a little flavor (and a few aspersions) on the world of food, drink, and life Thu, 04 Dec 2008 20:59:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: dan http://www.saltshaker.net/20070604/lunch-therapy#comment-105156 dan Fri, 04 Apr 2008 00:56:44 +0000 http://www.saltshaker.net/20070604/lunch-therapy#comment-105156 Adam - You're welcome to disagree - everyone has their own experiences and own opinions. It's also possible that something has majorly changed - after all, it's been 10 months since this review. At the time, they'd been closed for quite a few months for a complete overhaul (though honestly, looking around at the time, I'm not sure where the overhaul took place). I believe that they'd hired a new chef, and they were only about 6-8 weeks into being back up and running. So, who knows, maybe it took him some time to hit his stride, or maybe he didn't work out and they hired someone new. We certainly didn't have a bad experience that would steer me away from ever going there again, so sounds like it might be time for a revisit.

None of the dishes appear even similar to what we had in March 2008. The restaurant was one of the most surprising finds in anywhere i've travled. The menu was creative with daring and winning combinations. Each item seemed to compare unique flavors, textures and ideas. The menu must have changed significantly since this review as the simple and rather mundane items referenced were no where to be found on the menu last month. The appetizer sampler was fantastic. We tried entrees including a decadent calabaza ravioli, steak with apples prepared 3 ways and mouth-watering lamb chops. The desserts were not only wildly creative, but were the cutting-edge finish to a truly exciting meal. Hate to disagree, but we found Freud & Fahler to be one of the highlights of our visit to Buenos Aires!!! Had a completely different experience at this restaurant.
