Melange JUST opened at 644 6th Avenue SW on June 24th and had it's first lunch rush yesterday when I dined with two of my girlies from work.. Melange was giving out free appetizer vouchers en route to work so we decided to give them a try. The vouchers must have been a hit because Melange was very busy for their first lunch service ever... My thoughts on this restaurant are hmmmmm.... Very interesting... The menu is very small with salads, "grown up grilled cheese", "crepadillas", a burger and only 3 entrees. The female waitresses were all wearing the same pale blue bridesmaid looking dress and the men were wearing black shirts with ties that matched the dresses.We were wondering if this is their uniform or if their dresses will be changing periodically? I have never seen such a thing. I have also never seen "dim sum" listed as an appetizer... The staff came around with three different selections of "dim sum" appetizers we could say yes or no to for $3 each plate... Here is what we had:
We split the plate of crab cakes amongst us and they were quite good as well. Sweet and we liked the mayo drizzled over top. We still couldn't get over dim sum coming around at lunch! HA! So random. |
These crispy and sweet wings were my favorite dim sum item... Delicious! |
My side salad was pretty and colorful with a variety of vegetables and clear effort put into it. The honey vinaigrette was also really good. Best side salad I have had in a while! |
I think the "dim sum" appetizer idea is really unique and it's nice to see restaurants switching it up... Although it did seem a bit hectic and chaotic at times I think Melange is off to a great start. If I was to dine here again I would hope the dim sum will be different, I would DEFINITELY try the home cut fries because they look AMAZING and I would hope their sandwich bread for the grilled cheese improves. Best of luck Melange!
