Denveater’s BONUS Top 8 Dishes of 2011: The Miscellany
This one’s for the eggs, the duck, the lamb, the random flora & fauna not covered by the other categories. Kudos to The Red Claw & Trillium for scoring three-peats in my Top, er, 33 Dishes of 2011.
Oak-smoked duck with berry jus, new potatoes & chard & lamb osso buco at Elway’s Downtown
Chin chin at Hessini Roots International Café
TAG | Raw Bar’s kangaroo tartare
The Red Claw’s goat curry
Vesta Dipping Grill’s pistachio-mint-crusted lamb ribs with rose-blossom yogurt
Row 14 Bistro & Wine Bar’s inaugural parsnip-walnut soup with duck cracklings & cranberry coulis
Huevo escalfaldo with chorizo & mascarpone at Ondo’s Spanish Tapas Bar
I’ve tried one thing on your list, the lamb ribs at Vesta. They were very good and extremely rich. Loved the pistachio with lamb.
My experience with goat has been limited to petting zoos…looks like I have to try the goat curry.
Why is it that Ondo’s doesn’t get more respect locally? One of the best meals I had in 2011 as well.
