I had the most interesting twist on
Mac’n Cheese. That is saying something
considering this is Wisconsin, the home of all things cheese. It was Bree and cauliflower with bacon and
toasted pine nuts. Not to rich, just
cheesy enough. Nice crunch from the pine
nuts. The cauliflower lightened the dish. The description made me a little leery at
first, but there was no need to worry.
The Lazy Susan is a little place in the
Bay View neighborhood of Milwaukee. This
new place makes you feel like you walked into your best friend’s house for an
afternoon tea. The collections of
mismatch old plates on the wall add a welcoming hominess to the conversation
and the meal. This place is new but
already has a buzz. Don’t forget to get
reservations.
This restaurant specializes in dishes
to share. These are not tapas. Each dish is for the table and is large
enough for everyone to have a real portion. No scrimping on just getting a spoonful to
taste. The dishes placed in the center
of the table on the, yep you guessed it, the Lazy Susan. Spin the dish and get as much as you
want.
The menu changes with the inspiration
of the chef, the delights I had today might be gone tomorrow. In fact some of what I had is not on the menu
just a few days later. We started our
meal with the Grilled Baby Romaine- Crisp
prosciutto, buttermilk basil dressing, and blue cheese. Then a sampling plate of lamb, chicken, and pork
sausages took its turn. Of course there
was the man ‘n cheese, followed by fried chicken and desert
The bread is made fresh daily. At least half of the menu is either gluten
free, vegan, or can be vegetarian. Let’s
also, not forget the drinks. There is a
full bar. The skilled mixologists can
make you anything as well as suggest drinks for food pairing. Getting the drink of the day is also recommended.
The only downside is the parking. But after a good meal a stroll around the
block just adds to the enjoyment of the evening.
