Title: The Special for tonight...
Post by: Mac on August 27, 2011, 03:10:43 pm
We go out on our date night once a week, but this weekend, it's a triple. Thursday night we tried out a new restaurant downtown and loved it. Farmhaus, they specialize as a menu getting all their products from local farmers... except the fish.

One of the smaller places I've ever been in, but the focus was on the food. Small plates leaning towards Tapas, but a complete meal if you order enough.  :P

The food was nothing like I've had before.  We started off with...
Nachos
House made chips from local sweet potatoes, Salemville blue cheese, cherry wood
smoked house bacon lardoons, fire-roasted red pepper catsup


and 

Conch Fritters
Grilled corn, jalapeno, Sriracha mayo

Awesome

then we went for the entree

Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf
Sweet and Yukon Gold smashed potatoes, sous vide pearl onions, tomato- merlot
reduction


We ended it with a variety of desserts including a Basil Ice Cream. By far an unusual taste. I liked it. The others not so much. Also deep fried Apple Pie... Double, Double chocolate fudge bar. Made my teeth sweat.
