| - I'm pretty sure that if you don't like to waste any part of an animal, Lolita will be your carnivore kingdom of om-nom-nom-ness. (That's a technical term, don't question it.)
This gal has been spoiling herself to Lolita since it was suggested by a fellow Clevelanders year ago, and you know what? I've been served up the most consistently incredible meals of my adult life. I'm no food critic or connoisseur of any kind. I've traveled, appreciated the best of the best and I still love Lolita. Argue with me if you want, I know what I like and people from all over the world agree.
My most recent trip down to Michael Symon corner in Tremont was with colleagues of mine who love fantastic food as much as I do. Three different palettes, two first timers, one from Chicago, all left extremely pleased and full.
We came in hungry and our table reflected that... in fact, I'm pretty sure there was enough food to feed a small army. Seriously, vegans and vegetarians would have fainted if they saw the meat-eater's buffet sitting in front of us. To start, I dared to try bone marrow for the first time in my life. Mind you, I normally get freaked out by anything that still has bone in it--so, this was a bit of a shock for me. With much convincing from my trustworthy gal-pals, I smeared some on some grilled bread and crunched in. Not bad!! I probably wouldn't order it again, but I'm glad that I gave it a shot.
Then came my main course, which was the tender, juicy hanger steak stacked over chick peas and pickled onions. I have to admit, this is my typical order. I'm a creature of habit. But damn is it good! Order up a side of Lolita's polenta with mascarpone and you'll be basking in the rich decadence of an incredible meal.
Luckily my colleagues love to share and trust me, I took full advantage of this fact. First of all, I don't eat pork or any kind, but Micheal Symon knows how to make a damn good pork chop. I never knew they could taste so good. Then I got to try a piece of the juiciest, most flavorful roasted chicken I've ever consumed at a restaurant. Just know that if you order this dish, you'll get half of a bird on your plate. No joke, this serving is beyond ginormous. Did I mention I also savored the most incredible brussel sprouts of my life? Oh, well I did. And it was right here.
Lolita makes me happy. Lolita makes my visitors from out of town happy, even from Chicago. That's enough for me!
