Palace Kitchen Dinner by Shelley Lance, Blog Editor
My husband, Frank, and I had a lovely dinner at Palace late last week. The “Palaceville” handmade bratwurst with beer braised onions, mustard crumbs, and new crop-applesauce, Chef Brian Walczyk’s favorite, was tasty and fun. I’m sad we forgot to snap a photo of the Beecher’s stuffed pimento with olive salad- a gorgeous, vividly colorful plate and delicious too. We remembered my camera by the time a generous portion of beautifully sauteed chanterelles with grilled bread came to the table (photo top). A small handful of sweet cherry tomatoes played off the savoriness of the mushrooms. We also got a good photo of the corn cakes with three toppings (photo bottom): spicy cucumber, herbed chevre, and caramelized Walla Walla onions. Another beautiful plate, as you can see, and luscious. The thick corn cakes were rich but light with an almost fluffy texture that melts in your mouth. The harmonious flavors of the toppings set off the corn cakes perfectly.
Palace menu changes frequently, but Brian assures me corn cakes will still be available tonight, so I’d suggest you come on in and grab a plateful.
