Before leaving town for Christmas, Ms. Dish and I decided to stop by Les Halles for dinner:
Les Halles is a darn good French restaurant, particularly given that it's way down in the Financial District on John Street. It always seems to be packed with all sorts of people; financial types, tourists, locals, and so on. I can personally vouch for their specialty, the classic "Steak Frites".
We encountered Spoon #3 accompanying a cup of coffee:
Spoon #3 features the markings "Winco", "Stainless 18-10", and "8" in circle near bowl
Spoon #3 looks quite a bit like Spoon #2, but appears to be part of Winco's "Continental" family. I suppose a "continental" spoon is more appropriate for a French restaurant like Les Halles. Here's a picture of it with it's brothers and sisters:
Winco seems like a pretty no-nonsense restaurant supply company. According to the website, their philosophy is "we win when our customers win". Also of note, their distribution center is in Lodi, NJ - home of famous rock and roll band The Misfits!
I don't have any idea about this "8 in a circle" on the back - perhaps a hallmark or model number?
