I spent last week in Minneapolis on some business and was pleasantly inspired by a delectable steakhouse treat when I arrived and was taken to the legendary Manny’s.
What caught me off guard were not the carts of huge slabs of meat so garishly wheeled from table to table from which diners could make their Lipitor-inducing dinner selections, but the portabella fries special appetizer. Enormous mushrooms were cut in thick strips, rolled in a chili flake-enhanced breading and deep-fried to a dark brown. The mushrooms were plump, encased in the thick blanket of crusty breading. I had to cut them with fork and knife because biting directly into them would result in the ‘shroom juices escaping down my chin. Needless to say, I didn’t care if I was full for the main course—these were heaven.
