…The burger is decent, nothing more. Plenty juicy, but lacking in any real identifiable flavor. I more “felt” the patties in my mouth as I chewed them than tasted them, lucky to have all those condiments and melted cheese slices to keep my taste buds occupied…. [Full Post]

Germanic Monday

…The sausage loaf had the texture of a refined thick slice of good bologna, and was flavored by a rich combination of spices. This was a great dais for the soft-fried egg and a hit a ground mustard, which together augmented the leberkäse’s unctuousness and almost guilty amount of porkiness. The runny yolk of the egg, which I’m always a fan of, evenly integrated the texture dichotomies between the hot protein and the chilled finely chopped yet still toothsome potato salad…. [Full Post]

…I had forgotten how the rest of the city—the world—kind of falls away when I’m at Elio’s. The dishes were simple yet expertly executed, channelling many layers of “home cooking comfort”. My veal was so tender that my butter knife sliced straight through it in one motion…. [Full Post]

…But we now have a new chef, who is putting his on take on items we already had, such as fried calamari and chili, and coming up with some new grub, such as a fried pickle spears appetizer (served with chipotle mayo!) and the teriyaki-glazed pan-seared salmon I recently posted about…. [Full Post]

Written by Kerry Cheeseboro on May 22, 2011 — 2 Comments

Still excited about the new menu items at Dorrian’s Red Hand, in some part due to my having input into it. So now they/we offer—as part of their/our expanded entrée menu—a Teriyaki-Glazed Pan-Seared Salmon Filet, that is served over a crisp, warm salad of julienned veggies and some roasted potatoes.
