| - Oh, The Old Fashioned, you are one of my favorites in Madison!
I've had my fair share of visits, and I've been sure to try different menu items each time I go (and I've still got items on my must-try list!):
Drinks:
- The Classic Old Fashioned: the best. Can't go wrong with this -- although I like mine to be made as a brandy sour rather than the usual brandy sweet
Dinner:
- No. 20 - Plump Door County cherries, Buttermilk Blue cheese and toasted almonds tossed with mixed greens and brandy vinaigrette: I added chicken to mine to make this a more filling meal and I loved it! Wasn't too heavy, the dressing was great, and they definitely don't skimp on the cherries or almonds. Overall a simple but lovely salad, in my opinion
- No. 23 - Grill-seared Norwegian salmon with Bavaria's hickory-smoked bacon, cucumber, shaved red onion, deviled egg, mixed greens and tarragon vinaigrette: okay I LOVE this salad! It's so good. Has a lot of great flavors, and definitely a smokey taste with the bacon in there. It's delicious. Would probably choose this over the cherry salad if I had to!
- No. 27 - Prime Rib Sandwich - Hot, shaved prime rib, sauteed with mushrooms, onions, red peppers and topped with provolone cheese, tiger sauce & pickles on Clasen's Bakery sesame seed roll: Also good. Asked for the pickles on the side, and overall I liked it! It was pretty messy though. A lot of liquid seeped through to the bottom of the sandwich, making the bottom half of the roll very soggy. The beef was so tender though!
- No. 30 - The Old Fashioned House Burger-grilled over a live fire and topped with fried onions, Bavaria's hickory-smoked bacon, aged Cheddar, garlic sauce and a soft-cooked egg on a buttered and toasted roll: THE BEST! Man oh man this burger was the first burger I've ever had with an egg on it and it changed my life. Would not recommend for a first date though. It's fairly messy to eat and you need about ten napkins to keep your hands clean, if you're constantly picking up and setting down the burger between bites! I mean you definitely can hold it the whole time too... but your burger might be gone within a minutes because it's that good. I loved it, as you can tell. For sure get this when you're comfortable enough with your eating partner(s) to be a bit messy and egg-yolky :)
- No. 33 - Shaved hickory-smoked turkey breast with tiger sauce, Provolone cheese and leaf lettuce on country bread: I really liked this sandwich! It was a lot bigger than I had expected it to be -- I was extremely full after eating the whole thing, and I definitely could have gone with saving half to go. It's got good flavor with the tiger sauce, and the country bread is toasted and soft and wonderful!
Brunch:
- No. 1 - Wisconsin Benedict - A toasted Wolfermann's English Muffin with your choice of a Miesfeld Market bratwurst patty or grilled market vegetables. Topped with a sunny side up egg, whole grain mustard cream and rosemary potatoes: YUM!! I had just a single of this benedict and opted for the bratwurst patty. Wow it was deeeeelicious. I loved every bite! The single serving definitely filled me up, with the help of the rosemary potatoes. Those are so good!
Bottom line is that you won't be disappointed here. I'm excited to come here and try more brunch options, as well as have a go at my favorite salad and burger again! Much love to the Old Fashioned :)
