Yet another WV pub (sigh)

But this one comes with a pedigree, so we'd like to give it a try.

Joaquin Baca (of Momofuku and Rusty Knot fame) has put together an interesting menu for Wilfie & Nell as a favor to his friend Mark Gibson, co-owner of the WV pub:

Here were shepherd’s pies and meat pies. Here were fries with malt vinegar. And here were Scotch eggs, which in case you didn’t know are hard-boiled eggs wrapped in sausage, then breaded and deep-fried...In short, here was standard-issue pub grub.

Closer inspection revealed things like chicken-liver pâté with onion jam (delicious), Berkshire-pork sliders (delectable), and corned-beef sandwiches with Swiss Gruyère (drool-inducing). Furthermore, Wilfie & Nell, the fine print read, would like to thank the following purveyors: Blue Ribbon Bakery, Murray’s Cheese Shop, Piccinini Brothers (meats), and Bob McClure (pickles).
