We enjoyed a meal at the very cozy Westville last night. Located in the West Village, Westville serves polished comfort food like smoky mac n'cheese, corn-on-the cob, burgers, and hot dogs. Some of my favorites from last night's table were the crab cakes with green salad; corn-on-the-cob served with lime, cumin, and cotija cheese; crisp french fries; and from the "westville market", a daily selection of vegetables, grains and salads -- lemon-grilled asparagus.
Dessert is not to be skipped at Westville. Magic Chocolate Cake served with a scope of Bassetts vanilla ice cream, homemade oreo cookie, carrot cake, and butterscotch pudding were all excellent. And you don't have to take my word for it -- as we were finishing our dessert, Leonardo DiCaprio strolled in and ordered the carrot cake and oreo cookie to go -- a moment captured by David's dexterous moblogging skills.
