Winedown lounge


We had dinner last night at the Winedown lounge on Union Street in Schenectady. This is the most wonderful restaurant, and has become our fast favorite place to meet about once a month, for a fabulous meal.
Companion and I have been here about 4 times, and the food has been exceptional every time. The butternut squash soup is the most delicious thing ever; I have also had the artichoke soup, and it is also good, it has a kind of lemony flavor. (Is that what artichokes taste like?) I have had the filet, it's so amazingly tender, and I have also tried the grilled pork - it comes with butternut gratin, apple chutney and currant puree. Unbelievably wonderful.
I have been here on Saturday night for the jazz with dinner, and it was very crowded, but the other times we were here on Tuesday or Wednesday and have practically had the dining room to ourselves. A great place for a romantic dinner.
