CPH for short has always delivered an exceptional dining experience from beginning to end.
This visit I strayed from the norm- the must try Scallops that are 4 huge scallops with a side of corn grits (yes it works trust me), some greens and what gives it that pop or taste is the homemade cola reduction that is drizzled on. This is by far one of my top scallop dishes ever tasted.
But for this evening, we (the fiancee) got there early and took advantage of the happy hour. The rosemary salted nuts where good and flavor was great. Order the fondue which came with a nice side of break and some jerky. Cheese was great and didn't become to hot like some places that have to much heat underneath the cheese.
Final appetizer was the pork belly pastrami. Again, nailed it with layers of flavor, even from the slight hint of mustard at the end. Not to mention a very tender pork belly. Next the chopped salad which I've had at least 5 times. Won't go into detail but the ingredients are so different they have their own Facebook page!
Entrees for me was the Fair Trade Short Ribs and my significant other just had the macaroni and cheese side. Short Ribs where good, maybe 30 seconds less on the cooking for me- which is a personal preference. I'm not a fan of parsnip puree, but the texture and flavor was great. My significant other's mac and cheese was huge. Lots of cheese flavor and lots of noodles. For me it needed a "pop" of something but I can't place it.
Last, but not least, they do know how to serve a decent cocktail. I've complained before how restaurants want to charge but not deliver, but CPH gives a real drink with real flavors. Try their Manhattan if you like whiskey and you'll be sure to love house made bitters with the orange and cherry twist. My fiancee had the Mia Margarita which had some nice hints of lemon and lime with a surprise salt rim that had a smokey taste.
