Finally the Nomad Bar has started brunch and somehow I managed to be the first in the door for the inaugural Sunday. Of course starting Nomad cocktails at noon may not be the best idea, but we loved the menu additions and those we sampled were all fantastic. My only continuing complaint is that nothing on the dessert menu sounds better than having the hot dog as dessert.
Espresso martini – bitter chocolate infused cognac, cold brew coffee, creme de cacao, Kahlua
Bitches Brew – rye, cold brew coffee, zwack, mole bitters
Bay Scallops – marinated with yuzu & pistachio (could eat these all day)
Brussel sprouts – roasted with smoked lentils & Parmesan
Baked eggs – chèvre & fall squash
Short rib – hash, potatoes & duck egg
Hot Toddy – scotch, Benedictine, peychauds bitters, spices
Hot Buttered Rum – Venezuelan rum, compound butter, fall spices
And for dessert because why not?
Hot dog – bacon wrapped with black truffle & celery
