🍽️ Rochester Food - Cure Edition
🍽️ Rochester Food - Cure Edition|A Cozy Gem by the Market Right next to the Rochester Public Market, there’s a unique little spot— Cure! 📍 Address: 50 Rochester Public Market, Rochester, NY 14609. Not only is it a local favorite for brunch, but it also quietly transforms into a creative and warm dining destination in the evening~ 🥂✨ 🛒 Location & Vibe: Just steps from the bustling public market, Cure’s storefront is understated, but stepping inside, you’re greeted by an industrial-meets-retro charm. Brick walls, wooden furniture, warm lighting, and aromas drifting from the open kitchen make you instantly relax~ It often gets busy on weekends, so coming early is a good idea! 🥩 Must-Try: Beef Tartare This is absolutely Cure’s signature dish! The hand-chopped beef stays tender, seasoned perfectly—with briny capers, fresh herbs, and served with a raw egg yolk. Mix it all up and spread it on their perfectly toasted bread… 🤤 Layers of texture, savory without any gaminess. We even order takeout sometimes just for this! 🥖 Banh Mi (Vietnamese Sandwich) Their Banh Mi has a special seasoning—tangy, sweet, with a hint of spice, really cuts through richness~ 🌶️ The bread is crispy outside, soft inside, packed with fillings. My teammate loves this one! Great for fans of Asian fusion flavors. 🍤 Scallops The scallops are huge, seared until golden outside and tender inside—cooked just right~ Served over creamy mashed potatoes with a rich dairy aroma that complements the scallops’ sweetness. No fishy taste at all! 🥔 🦆 Duck de l'orange A delightful surprise—the duck leg is fall-off-the-bone tender with crispy, fragrant skin reminiscent of roast duck! 🍊 The orange-based sauce is sweet and tangy, simmered with daikon radish for a refreshing, layered finish~ 🍸 Drinks Experience: Cure’s cocktails are visually stunning, but some are quite spirit-forward. If you prefer sweeter, lower-alcohol options, let your server know~ We tried two recommended ones and still found them a bit sharp on the throat—maybe better for those who enjoy stronger drinks. 🍹 Overall, Cure is a relaxed, thoughtful, and creatively fusion hidden gem. Whether you’re taking a break after market shopping or coming specifically for the food, it won’t let you down~ 💖 #Rochester#FoodDiary#DailyEats#RochesterNY#CozyRestaurant#BrunchRecommendation#FoodieAdventure
