After a busy day of viewing Open Houses, I happened to be in the neighborhood to try The House.  It's a restaurant situated in a tiny red brick townhouse on 17th street just east of Union Square.  Since it was a bit late, I decided just to have a soup and a salad - something light and healthy.

The soup was outstanding!  Very light and fresh.  They make good soups.

My salad was extra ordinary with jicama and a very light dressing that complimented the delicate taste and texture of the vegetables that they combined which included micro-greens.

The House is a charming place to eat.  If you were just passing by, you would not notice that it is a restaurant.  It does not have a big sign indicating that it's a typical restaurant.  It appears to be small, but it does have a second floor.  And in the summer, there is outdoor sitting by the sidewalk.

This is an all year and all occasion type of restaurant to go to.  You get special food in a special place that you will remember.  Try it for the Holidays!
