| - My first experience with PCG was at a small, yet fantastic Yelp event. I've been back twice and have been just as impressed.
The first time was for brunch, and I recommend the griddled corn cakes. No, I just don't recommend them, I insist you have them. Even if you are allergic to corn, take the plunge and try these...unless you might die, then stay away as that might be bad PR for PCG. Topped with smoked ham (that's what I had), chicken, or bacon and served with maple syrup, it was beyond good. I could eat this dish every day of my life. The black beans were okay, but I do think the breakfast potatoes are nothing special and could be improved upon. I was a big fan of a $4 mimosa, however! Yep, you read that right...4 bucks!
Second visit for dinner, and I ordered the cedar planked salmon. A generous piece of fish perfectly cooked and served with a delicious lemon aioli. The accompanying roasted beets were not my thing, and the mashed potatoes were okay (maybe I'm picky about potatoes?) I also tried a bit of my dining companion's beef tenderloin and it was butter-knife tender (that's what I cut it with). Served with a stuffed potato and mushrooms, I believe, it will most likely be my next entree. For dessert, we shared the Jack Daniel's croissant bread pudding. We actually shared half, and I most generously took the other half to my husband who I left at home. Although, I generally don't care for bread pudding, this is NOT your typical bread pudding and probably the best bread pudding you can imagine (other than that one recipe that uses a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts).
Although PCG is a little bit of a drive for me (outside my usual 5-mile maximum radius), I will happily make that drive and return again.
