Yesterday, we shared a peek at the first half of Village Whiskey's menu. Today, we went back and bugged the staff a little more to grab some more food photos for y'all, which technically means we're the neats-and-eats bar's first regulars. (And we haven't been kicked out yet!) Everybody's been asking us about the burgers, so we made sure we got shots of all that on-a-bun goodness.

Get the full menu here.

Meal Ticket will know by the end of the day whether VW's original Thursday opening still stands.

UPDATE: We now hear that they won't know if the city will allow them to open this Thursday (L&I/paperwork delays, you know the routine) until Wednesday night. So keep checking back here (and follow Meal Ticket on Twitter) to find out first.

What's what, in order:

  • Cape May Salts (served in a prospector's pan)
  • Nausett Bay (MA) top neck clams
  • Shortrib and cheddar French fries (cooked in duck fat)
  • Lobster Roll (one pound of butter-poached lobster in a lemon/Old Bay aioli with applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce and tomato)
  • The Village Burger (eight ounces of meat ground in-house, homemade Thousand Island dressing, Boston bibb lettuce, tomato, house-baked sesame bun)
  • The Whiskey King (10 ounces of meat ground- in-house, one ounce foie gras, bleu cheese, applewood-smoked bacon, maple bourbon-glazed cipollini onions, Guinness potato roll)
  • Veggie Burger (black bean burger, guacamole, aged cheddar, sesame roll)
  • Kentucky Fried Quail (with sweet potato/chanterelle/corn succotash, roast chicken jus)
  • House-smoked hot links (barbecue baked beans, cole slaw, Texas toast)

Why are there tomatoes on my lobster roll?  Why is there bacon on my lobster roll? Why isn't there more lobster on my lobster roll?  Ah, maybe it'll seem OK after a couple stiff whiskeys.
