Georgia Smoked Chop

This was dinner from 31 Bistro (a farm-to-table restaurant) a couple of nights ago: A huge cut of pork chop with an apple demi glace, sage butter rice, acorn squash and spinach. Yum.

Dinner at Harry’s

I woke up this morning with a craving for Harry’s Delicatessen — a great Jewish/Italian deli in downtown Knoxville that serves amazing dishes made of mostly fresh, local foods. Thankfully it doesn’t take much to convince Brandon to eat at Harry’s with me (because he loves it as much as I do), so that’s where we headed for dinner.

Tonight I had the cider braised pork with roasted Brussels sprouts and polenta. Delicious! Last week (yup, I went to Harry’s then, too) I had the sweet potato gnocchi with chicken confit and braised kale. I could eat at Harry’s every day. Local and yummy — can’t be beat.
