Cilantro, Clifton


Wednesday 5 December
Before going with our friend Kathy to an exciting workshop performance of the opera Morning Star (on family, immigration, love, and the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire), we thought we'd try a quick meal at the new location of Cilantro.
Sorry to report that, unlike the touching and uplifting opera, the food at Cilantro is bland and ho-hum.  We had beef vermicelli noodle bowl, sort of a clueless lettuce salad on top of noodles; and Hu tieu with egg noodles and shrimp.  Neither is a patch on Lu Lu's, where we swoon over bowls of Best of Both Worlds Soup.
We needed some Graeter's when we got home (cinnamon and peach, to be precise).
