UPDATE: Tables on Kearney Restaurant has permanently closed.
Here are some images from a delicious meal at Tables on Kearney in Denver's Park Hill neighborhood.
First course: DUCK CONFIT FLATBREAD, Caramelized ONION, ROQUEFORT, Spinach & ROSEMARY Vinaigrette - Deep, rich, savory flavors on the flatbread perfectly partnered with a wonderful high note of rosemary infused dressing on the spinach salad. And then, there's blue cheese! Wonderful.
Second course: Braised LAMB SHANK,Winter Spiced CAULIFLOWER, CRANBERRY Jam & Citrus GREMOLATA - comfort food for a cold snowy night at its best. I was reminded of a Christmas dinner made even more special by the falling-off-the-bone lamb shank. The spice was just right. I always get the braised lamb shank when it is available at Tables -- it never disappoints.
Dessert: Carrot Cake, Mascarpone Cream & Candied Walnuts - What can I say? It was the best carrot cake ever! Moist, rich, crunchy candied nuts, and sublime frosting. It just doesn't get any better than this.
Footnote: The flaky salt on the table (in the little jar) -- addictive when a few flakes are sprinkled on their bread and butter.
