(New) A simultaneous salute to Samuel Clemens and to husband-wife team Tim and Rebekah Graham, Twain takes its culinary inspiration from mid-century women’s club cookbooks, with Tim Graham’s modern interpretations. Thus there’s Ants on a Log, only made with a duck-liver-and-peanut mousse and bourbon-soaked cherries. Entrees shine brighter than the starters (don’t miss the Pigs in a Blanquette), matched to Rebekah Graham’s meticulously assembled (and bargain-priced) wine list.
