If my first visit to 2 Sparrows represented the very best of what the restaurant is capable of then I have little doubt that my second represented the worst \u2013 from the disinterested service of a young woman named Jackie to a sticky bun that was essentially an over-baked biscuit topped with dense, sticky paste and onward to three \u201cpoached\u201d eggs that were better called hard boiled served over undercooked, barely edible potatoes in not one, but two dishes it was the saleable art on the wall and the Bread Pudding alone that prevented this from being the most disappointing meal of all time\u2026and even then, those saving graces aren\u2019t enough to ever see me return\u2026not when an answer to the overcooked eggs was to take them away, leave the gnocchi and hash cooling on the table, and return ten minutes later with better eggs\u2026and twenty minutes later with a bill pushing $100 and no acknowledgement that anyone cared that the meal was awful (even after an e-mail to the restaurant later that day.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
