D4: 
{Bar Spero -- on the list of best new restaurants you sent us.}

Shrimp and scallop mousse-stuffed buffalo chicken wings. Yogurt dill sauce. 

Fresh raw oyster with tomato water and pepper; baked oyster with cream; scallop tostada on blue corn crisp with roasted corn silk. Rye whiskey old fashioned cocktail with jamon Iberico simple syrup. 

Ice cream of fig three ways: fig fruit, fig leaf syrup, fig branch syrup. Garnished with a roasted hay infused foam; roasted walnut crust; fig leaf syrup drizzle.

***

Food:8/10. Highlights were the baked oysters (in the bowl along with a couple raw oysters); the scallop tostada with roasted corn silk (we're holding bites of it) and the fig-3-ways ice cream with roasted hay foam, roasted walnut crust, and fig leaf syrup

Cocktails 5/10 a bit too sweet across the board 

Service 10/10

Value 9/10 

The InKind app gave us $50 off. Meal was $350 all in (including drinks and 20% tip) so $300 after discount
