X-Posted from Not For Tourists.
I was lured to Vessel by the promise of cheap champagne during happy hour. I stayed for the giant glasses they filled with my libation of choice. Vessel appears to be primarily a drinking destination, with upscale food as an afterthought. The Croque Monsieur Petit sandwiches, while delicious, are basically just Ham and Cheese with a dipping sauce. The most interesting thing about Vessel is the layout. It appears that the location used to be a clothing store, and it still feels a bit like one when you are seated at the “counter” in front of the window. Surely diners resemble mannequins as they enjoy their Vessel offerings. My companion and I were waved at by not one, not two, but FOUR passersby during our 30 minute set as window-dressings.
