text: 1/21/10\nOrdered the duck club http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/k1QpHAkzKTrFYfk6u--VgQ?select=7A5VAyqfTeIMbaoicdd9GA minus the red wine tomato jam and instead had pesto on the side, along w/ the roasted garlic aioli and the side of fries that come with the entree.  Looked great- the fries were perfect (!), but, and perhaps the absence of the red wine tomato jam had something to do with it, I didn't find the sandwich to be anything to write home about.  The delicious and crispy apple-smoked bacon and roasted garlic aioli were big pluses and helped to round out this review to three stars.  The tiramisu I had for dessert was very good! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/k1QpHAkzKTrFYfk6u--VgQ?select=AaTAT23mL5rguQtrmDEbNw  Your usual espresso-soaked ladyfingers layered w/ sweet mascarpone and cocoa, BUT w/ the added toffee-crunch of pine nut brittle!  Oh... I could use a few bites of that pastry right now :)\n\nService was a little lacking- I had noticed a woman busily jotting down the night's specials and had asked my server what else were being served (if anything struck my fancy, I'd have added more to my tab), but he would not and DID NOT go to any lengths to get the info.  Lo, and behold, as I was walking out the door, I looked at the board and, sure enough, there were at least three items that I would've gladly ordered for take-out had my server relayed the info.  Hey, it was his and The Parlor's loss in tips and sales!\n\nI wanted to sit at the bar area this time, to get a different perspective of the place, but I didn't care for the austere metal chairs that contrasted w/ the rest of the wooden furniture.  Found it jarring, especially since I felt that the rest of the venue to be cozy and inviting!
