Modern Waldorf Salad
This big salad is not your mama’s Waldorf, but it keeps all the best components of the traditional. Chopped apple, celery, grapes and dates mingle with grilled chicken, walnuts, sharp cheddar and bacon, all dressed in a yogurt and mayonnaise-based dressing sweetened with cider and a titch of honey. Served on a base of lemony greens, this Waldorf hits all the sweet/salty/tangy notes with veggie crunch and creamy smoothness to spare.

Fresh corn tortillas are rolled around cream cheese, pecan and scallion filling, doused with smoky, red chile gravy and baked to hot and bubbly. Served with buttered pumpkin seed rice and vinaigrette-dressed greens.

California-style Salmon Avocado Burger
Spiked with fresh ginger and soy sauce and seared to a crusty exterior and a moist interior, this big, housemade salmon patty makes a very tasty burger. We put it on a toasted kaiser roll swiped with mustard-mayo and pile it with an avocado slaw that is as much avocado as it is slaw, if not more so. Served with vinaigrette-dressed greens or hot fries.

Macaroni and Cheese
Rustic, curly cavatappi baked with true Swiss Gruyere, sharp Cheddar and just a smidge of aged French blue cheese is just the thing for chilly weather.

Served with vinaigrette-dressed greens.

Grilled Meatloaf Sandwich with Bacon Jam
A thick slice of Chef Brauny’s homemade all-beef meatloaf on griddle-toasted bread with a little provolone, a swipe of mustard-mayo, and a big dollop of bacon jam is just the thing for lunch these chilly days. The meat is juicy, the bacon jam is sweet and smoky, and the combination is kind of like what Mom made, only more so! Served with fries and vinaigrette-dressed greens.

Pork Jezebel
It’s back, and better than ever. Slices of pork tenderloin are gently pounded into cutlets, salt and peppered, and seared on the hot griddle, then plated and spooned with our version of jezebel sauce, the tastiest thing in the world. In Texas, jezebel is peach jam spiked with horseradish and mustard. They pour it over a block of cream cheese and serve it with crackers. Here we add a glug of heavy cream to our homemade fresh peach jezebel, and in a few minutes on the stove it becomes a warm and heavenly sauce for pork. Served with buttermilk mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables.
