Spotted April 28, 2012Devilishly Good Eggs: hard-boiled eggs filled with hand-formed steak tartare, topped with hollandaise and accompanied by sieved egg yolk, capers, chopped red onion and cornichons with toast points. Awesome :) -
Spotted April 28, 2012Comes with Porcini Puree, Bordelaise Sauce and Truffle Oil. Also with some spicy ketchup and nice chimichurri sauce that adds appropriate heat. At Ray's to the Third, you can add a single Fried Chicken breast (spicy or classic country-style) for $5 more.-

Spotted April 14, 2012Preserved Tuna (sundried tomato), Golden Beets (roasted beets with bottarga di muggine), Broccolli Rabe (sautéed broccolli rabe with burrata), & House Smoked Salmon (mascarpone cheese).

Spotted April 14, 2012Baba are European yeast cakes (some consider them breads) saturated in liquor and perhaps filled with pastry cream. Traditionally the liquor of choice for baba is rum, which what this Eataly pastry item shoots for. Very tasty. Find these at the 'Pasticceria' section of Eataly.-

Spotted April 14, 2012Baba are European yeast cakes (some consider them breads) saturated in liquor and perhaps filled with pastry cream. @ Eataly, the Italian theme has this baba soaked with Limencello. Oh so good, gives these a try if you're a limoncello fan. Find these at the 'Pasticceria' section of Eataly.-

Spotted April 14, 2012Trying out the new Chef's dishes, lunchtime today is the butter-poached Lobster Grilled Cheese w/ camembert, basil aioli and herbs. Accompanying was a rich Tuscan-style tomato soup. Wow that was good. Kudos to the Chef, the new menu reads great (lots of game meat use -- Elk, Venison, Wild Boar, etc)-

Well, it's 'Cherry Blossom' season in Washington DC, & Blue Duck Tavern honors this time of year w/ a special version of its famous 'made-to-order, fresh out of the oven' chocolate cake. A molten version (warm & chocolately gooey in the center) with accompanying brandied cherries.-
