Monday Morning Quarterbacking: Carlyle Club
In yesterday's paper I reviewed the reinvented Carlyle Club near the Johns Hopkins Homewood campus.
If you like the Ambassador Dining Room, its sister restaurant, you'll like this place. It's that simple. They offer the same amenities and have the same flaws, or at least what some people will consider flaws.
There are two things I didn't get a chance to mention in my review. ...
This restaurant works particularly well, it seems to me, if you want Indian food and someone else in your party doesn't. The menu not only includes excellent crab cakes, but also a strip steak dinner, complete with mustard mashed potatoes and mushrooms.
Also there's an elaborate combination Indian and American brunch on Sundays from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. for $19.95.

From the review:
Don't make the mistake of thinking this refers to a particular regional cuisine. As people have pointed out, India has a variety of coastal cuisines.
People have pointed this out? People? You mean US. We're in your head. Abandon hope, you are Borg now.

Oh joy of joys! I was terrified they would lose the crabcakes - now I just hope they serve them with the same garlic-bomb aioli on the side.
