went to ox last night, everything was delicious and our waitress was very good. we had the mushroom soup (which surprisingly is veggie and dairy free!) and steak tartar (which i did not taste, but my bf reported was teriffic). i had the sea bass which was light, a bit sweet which i like and bf had the scallops which were rich with little german dumplings and brussel sprouts. we had the apple cranberry crisp, lots of apples. ambiance was also pleasant, lots of people, and i would have expected it to be louder, but the sound dynamics were ok.

SKINNERS LOFT "DELISH" ?

Went to Skinner's Loft for a late dinner and I feel ill. I was not particularly hungry so I ordered a small plate of broccoli rabe with sausage and biscuits...it sounded like an odd mix, but a combination of 3 foods I love. What appeared on my plate was regular broccoli (no rabe) which was saturated in oil, burnt frisbees of sausage (flavorless) and 3 halves of bread rolls that were somewhat gutted and hard as rocks. It was gross, luckily my salad was edible. My boyfriend's dish was supposed to be risotto with prawns, squash and carrots. The best part of which were the slivers of carrots. I have never had such tasteless risotto, it seemed to have been simmered in vegetable oil and nothing else. Perhaps we ordered the wrong items, but I am not returning; I have honestly never had such a horrible meal in Jersey City. The highlight of course, was the ambiance and the list of beers is pretty good. I am still recovering since my stomach is coated in oil, I suppose it might be a good night to go to the bar, but I will opt to stay near the toilet.
