At Hudson’s on the Bend restaurant outside of Austin, chefs Jeff Blank and Jay Moore preach and practice an adventurous cuisine as big and robust as the Lone Star State. Fish and game reign supreme, both on the grill, in the sauté pan, and out of the iron skillet, and they’re finished with sauces, salsas, and glazes that’ll electrify your palate and change your worldview. With Jeff and Jay at the helm, you’ll sit down to daring dishes like Toasted Piñon-Coriander-Crusted Goat Cheese on Garden Greens; Rattlesnake Cakes in a Pistachio Nut Crust; and Smoked Rainbow Trout with Nopalitos, Smoked Bacon, and Apple Jack Sauce. So stick around—the feast is only just getting started. Reader description(s): An interactive culinary feast for the senses(all 6 of them)!

The art work, the music-to-cook-by suggestions, the actual recipes. Ah, yes, the actual recipes; a bit labor intensive for my day-to-day tastes, and some of the ingredients are hard to come by in Cajun country, but on the whole, a sensory delight. woolly mammoth meatballs a la mode (1/1 votes)These guys could concoct a recipe for woolly mammoth meatballs a la mode, and I'd be willing to try it. Talk about imaginative, tongue-massaging food! But the recipes need to be examined closely, particulary with regards to proportion. The amount of liquid called for in the ancho-bock smashers is excessive, as is the amount of salt in the butternut squash, granny smith apple soup.
