Today I went to Church & Main with some very good friends, all of us on a budget. We had decided to get brunch since it is generally less expensive than dinner, thankfully we were right. I have to say that I am an extremely happy camper, right now.
We sat at the counter facing Main Street and watched people, and animals, wander by while we ate. There was a variety of choices on the menu, I chose the Lobster Benedict. Lobster, poached eggs, and a corn cake made for one delicious combination.
The lobster was unfortunately slightly overcooked, but it had amazing flavor. The eggs were cooked to perfection, which I, personally, know is a hard task. And then there is the corn cake. It had amazing flavor, and everything was perfectly balanced, but it was kinda mushy. It needed more crunch. This could have been fixed if it was seared longer to develop a beautiful golden brown crust, but unfortunately, without that crunchy texture, the dish became muddled.
The restaurant itself is in a small space, but it made for a cozy, intimate atmosphere. The service was slightly lacking though. I did overhear that there was a mix up in the kitchen, but there was a large time lapse in between ordering the food and actually receiving it. The waitress should have communicated to us that there was a mix up.
All in all, I would definitely go back to Church & Main. The food was quite delicious (with some minor tweaking needed), but I will give them the benefit of the doubt because they have only been open a few weeks. I do hope to go back soon and try more delicious, coma inducing food, soon.
