All’s Well at M. Wells Diner

Magasin Wells Diner is this cute little diner that Pat found in Long Island. Food served is described as “Quebeco-American cuisine” by the owners with the menu seemingly Diner-like (Hamburgers, Egg-Sausage Sandwiches, Fish n’ Chips) but with twists, for example the burger has a Harissa Mayo, the egg-sausage sandwich a pickled jalapeno.

The menu too has some interesting dishes such as Pickled Pork Tongue, Bay Scallop Ceviche, and Escargots and Bone Marrow. The menu on the board behind the bar also included Foie Gras! The bone marrow in particular seemed quite popular if the chef’s preparations were anything to go by.

Today the Seafood Cobbler grabbed my attention with the promise of Bechamel, Gruyere and Biscuits. Mmm … Pat, went for a beautiful looking (and tasting) Pea Soup. Both warmed dishes seemed fitting in light of the light snow that fell outside whilst we were eating!

The cool thing about M. Wells Diner is that it seemed to be frequented by locals – always a good sign when you eat at any venue!
