The picture above is of the recently-opened Park on Fremont:

Here is the menu from Park on Fremont that we perused last weekend — thinking at the time we might want to try it:

Here is what we posted on Facebook:

It (the menu at “Park on Fremont”) couldn’t be less imaginative if it was thought up by a 10 year old.
