Here’s the Restaurant Week 2012 Menu:
First Course: Mixed Green or Beet Salad
Second Course: Moules and Frites or Braised Short Rib
Dessert: Belgian Waffle or Orand and Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta
I love the Braised Short Rib with winter stoemp, arugula and pickled onion with the Domaine dupage demi glaze. It pairs nicely with the 2010 Chateau D’Agel; a nice blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mouvedre.
Order a side of Roasted Brussel Sprouts with turnips, chestnuts, bacon and maple syrup served in a small cast iron pot.

During Chef Week 2012, I’ll try the Moules in white wine and garlic with a side of delicious Frites.
Leopold brings back fond memories of the mussels that I had in Brussels at an outdoor cafe in the elegant Grand Place. This delightful European-influenced restaurant in West Town transports you to Belgium.
Every Sunday, Leopold’s offers “Mussels from Brussels”; a three course menu with beer or wine pairings for $30.
My compliments to Chef Jeffrey Hedin!!!!
