LH JFK FCL dinner menu

ANTIPASTI (cold)
Prosciutto di Parma
excellent, thin sliced to order

medium age, just beginning to go grainy, fairly sharp
in flavor


Manchego

Selection of black and green olives
very nice selection, including a truffled green olive
that knocked my socks off

Watermelon-Feta stick/mint pesto
bk3day liked these and highly recommended that I try
one - I respectfully declined

PASTA & ASIA
Rigatoni
creamy pumkin-ricotta sauce
leek & onion

Chicken "Jalfrezi"
Madini rice

TRADITIONAL DISH
Beef Stroganoff
Spaetzle
I tried this - not too creamy, which was good; made with
filet trimmings, which was good; not too salty, which was
good; had cucumber slices in it, which was just plain weird


SPECIALS
Smoked salmon/cream cheese/capers

Steamed "goyza"
soy sauce/light dijon mustard dip
nicely done, but the "goyza" filling was an unidentifiable
mush


Vegetarian spring rolls
sweet chili sauce/soy sauce

Maryland crab cakes
ponzu and ginger dressing/lettuce
pretty tasty, but how Maryland they were I don't know;
also an overplus of filler


Bavarian "Leberkaese"
brezel/Dijon mustard/fresh horseradish

DESSERTS
DO & CO's Mousse au Chocolat
light in texture, color, and taste; very sweet

Homemade walnut-blueberry cake

Italian style espresso flan

Fresh fruit salad

DEMEL's apple strudel/vanilla sauce


Cream chocolate-banana mousse
there was also peanut butter in this, which our server
warned us about; she said it was very nice; I wasn't
overwhelmed - too many things going on in an unconvincing
way


Traditional "Kaiserschmarrn"/plum chutney
nice version of an intrinsically you-had-to-be-there dish

Selection of sorbets

Austrian style chocolate soufflee/vanilla ice cream
