Garlic. Butter. Mussels. It’s a simple spell, but quite unbeatable. @littlepart1cafe does them exceptionally well, and their version of garlic butter mussels ($18 nett for 500 grams) is quite memorable.⠀

The mussels are fresh & thoroughly cleaned, which allowed the simple yet stellar sauce of garlic, butter & possibly white wine to shine. The sauce is thin, as expected, but there’s a myriad of marvellous flavours in it. It’s rich & silky from the butter, it’s pleasantly pungent from the aromatics of the garlic, and it’s satisfyingly salty.⠀

That’s it, that’s the review. The garlic butter mussels consist of less than five ingredients, but it’s deliriously delicious. Now, I’m gonna get Part 2 of these majestic mollusks, so you can see yourself out the door.
