Sunday afternoon M and I walked down to the new deli and market that is part of the Heartland Restaurant that opened this past July. It occupies the first floor of the Market House building across from the Farmer's Market. I had heard that the wild boar braunschweiger was excellent....and it was. I finished the remaining slice this morning for a German style breakfast. It seems like a nice compliment to the Farmer's Market and the hours from 9am to 9pm are generous (closed Mondays). The first time M and I were in the new deli, one of the waitresses from the Heartland waved to us. She had been our favorite waitress at the Bulldog (across from Mears Park) which generally falls a little better into our price range. The thing that I enjoy about the service at the Bulldog is that the waitstaff seem to know exactly when you want something and don't bug you every 5 minutes asking "how's it tastin'?" We were at the Bulldog this past week for happy hour and ordered the meatloaf sliders. Ten minutes later the waitress came out and said that the cook had forgotten to put the meatloaf in the oven. Since it would take an hour, they "comped" us an order of blue cheese sliders. Thanks Bulldog! Days later Whole Foods gave us a $5 gift certificate because the cash register broke down and we had to switch lanes. It's the small things that make me feel good.
