]]>I ordered the Short Rib Hash ($15) and side of Breakfast Potatoes ($3) because I was HUNGRY!!! Oh, and a GIANT Pomegranate/Grapefruit mimosa.
Here’s the description of the hash:
Braised Prather Ranch short rib hash, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, golden yams, 2 eggs, horseradish, creme fraiche, au jus
When my dish came, I was very surprised. I guess in my head I was envisioning a big plate of hash – lots of veggies, potatoes/etc with bits of short rib… you know, like corned beef hash but with short rib. This dish was definitely a very modern interpretation – everything was purposefully placed, it looked so delicate and neat (see below). After a half of a nanosecond I got over my “non-hash” surprise and broke the egg yolks and started mixing everything around. No time to eat like a sophisticated human being after waiting over an hour… lol. This freaking dish was so AWESOME my plate was cleaned and wiped dry within minutes.
I ended up glopping forkfuls of the short rib and eggs onto the bread and eating it that way. The (Acme) bread didn’t last long… then I ended up dipping my potatoes in it. Overall the dish was very excellent. So good that there was not even any liquid left in the bottom of the plate/bowl. The meat was tender and juicy and a little bit smokey, just perfect! I admit I was disappointed there weren’t more potatoes/veggies since it was supposed to be a hash… only got 1/2 piece of 1 brussel sprout (cut into 2 pieces), 2 tiny cubes of sweet potato and some onions. Oh well. It was good anyway, hehe.
The breakfast potatoes: these potatoes were A-MAZING!!! I accidentally yelled “OMG!” after I took the first bite!! They were crispy and hot and salty, buttery with dill sprinkled around. The crispiness of these potatoes were what made them amazing and addictive! I didn’t care that I was already full from eating the entire bowl of short rib hash, I needed to finish this bowl of potatoes. I swear to the gods I could eat a bowl of these potatoes at every meal for the rest of my life! And guess who much this bowl of potatoes cost? $3, yay!
