last thursday was my second round of restaurant week! i headed to crush with stephanie and aj. crush is in a random looking house on capital hill. it's neat because as soon as you walk in the door, you can see the kitchen which is open on the right. blake talked up crush a lot so i thought i'd give it a shot.
for my appetizer, i got the pork belly. O.M.G. it was one of the best things i've ever eaten. the pork belly was crispy on the outside and the fat made it even better. it was also served with these lentils. it was just so good--i could've eaten four plates of them.

for my entree i ordered the skate wing! apparently it is a fish because i had never heard of it before. the fish was really good--cooked well but a little stringy. they put a rub on it which was a little smoky but i didn't mind it. paired with that was a couscous that had mint in it (really yummy touch) and then the whole dish was topped with a pepper romesco sauce. i think my favorite part of the dish was the couscous.

then for my dessert, i had the salted caramel ice cream sundae with the blondie brownie. oh my! this was another dish that was just amazing. i had never had salted caramel ice cream (i feel like everyone is obsessed with it) so that was nice to try. i ended up not being able to eat all of the brownie but you can bet all the ice cream was gone!
