I know, I know, we all hate layovers. We just want to get from point A to point B with as little fuss as possible. But don't sleep on having a long layover! Recently, my hubby and I had a layover at DFW. We came in from an international flight and after all of the customs, security, bag re-check insanity (a necessary evil, I get it), we still had time to kill so we went to Cru for a nice, calm sit down meal.
First, let me say that the food was delicious. We shared the charcuterie board and it was so good. It had apples, grapes and pears along with the meats and cheeses and all of it was super fresh and added lots of flavor to the wine I tried. I had the Prosciutto Sandwich and it was great. However, I have to say, that it was a little too salty. The flavors meshed well though, and everything tasted fresh, but I couldn't finish it due to the saltiness.
My hubby had a pepperoni pizza and it was amazing. The sauce was delicious, incredibly tomato forward and it didn't taste like the big-batch, chain-like flavors associated with food at fast turn around restaurants that don't cook anything from scratch.
I tried a wine flight and it was the one that had wines native to Texas. Unfortunately, I can't remember the names, but I can say they were just ok. I wouldn't order the same flight again because I am a bit of a wine enthusiast and the wine was not the best. They had other options, however, and the list extended far beyond Texas wines. But it was still good and added to the relaxing experience.
Our server was very kind and attentive and the restaurant was clean with a wine "library" feel. It was just a great little stop in terminal D.
