When people ask me "where should I eat in Cleveland?" I generally say "Lola, Greenhouse Tavern, Red Steakhouse or Light Bistro. I have to add Lolita to the mix for my favorite after this last experience.
The beet salad with Marcona almonds was fresh and flavorful with small blood orange segments (I think?)
The Brussel sprouts, which I remembered being great before, exceeded my memory. Who knew they would be so great with anchovy, capers, walnuts and vinegar? What? Yes!
The fusilli with lamb, bread crumbs and orange was in the top five pasta dished I have ever had. This type of thin long noodle al dente fusilli was perfection. The lamb was. It ground but more of a pulled lamb. I added some grated cheese I asked for and it put it over the top. Man, oh man. This dish was dynamite.
