Ah yes, the Magpie. Oh how I love thee, let me count the ways. Well I had dinner here two days ago so you know it doesn't suck. Twice yearly we come to Magpie, in the spring for TheJenny's birthday and in the winter for mine.

Like always the food it freaky good. Duck gnocchi, steelhead trout, crispy pork belly, mac n' cheese with bacon and brussel sprouts and so much more. I showed up early with a few sometimes drunks and caught the tail end of happy hour. Their $4 meat and cheese plates are a bargain and have a really impressive quality and taste. They've also added a sparkling Rose to the wine list which we enjoyed.

We had 18 people tonight so we ended up make a lovely L-shaped table in the corner. The funny thing is all the picture below are uncomfortable, blurry, unflattering and just kind of terrible but really it was a great, loud night! I even got homemade gingerbread cupcakes, woot!
