51Fifteen

Went to 51Fifteen bar for lunch.  Gone are the days of associate lunch, but you can still get some decent food from the bar menu to console yourself.

We got Cajun Grilled Shrimp, which is sweet chili sauce and grilled shrimp.  Nice and sweet, not spicy at all.

Classic Slider, each of them are perfect size, the bread is nice and warm, and it is a cute mini cheeseburger, and delicious to boot.

Black Bean Empanadas.  I'm not typically an bean empanada person, but they mix it with cilantro cream, not just sour cream, and that makes a difference.  

Sitting at the bar area, you are practically front row to their in-house pianist, Michaelangelo.  He's ever so charming and love to entertain.  So prepare to enjoy some of that, and he also likes to work the room too, quite a character.  The service at the bar is just as good as being seated, so feel free to take it easy if dining room is a bit too stuffy, dependent on other diners in the room too.
