| Located in a historic red-brick two-story corner building, Eiderdown has a long, tile-trimmed bar and symmetric rows of rustic wooden tables. The menu is German-inspired with several Southern regional and contemporary flourishes. The most popular appetizer is the daily beer cheese iteration. Imaginative salads include red-veined sorrel sprinkled with pistachios, red onion and strawberries, dressed in lavender honey and thyme vinaigrette. The three-bone pork ribs are braised in sauerkraut (which could use some juniper berries) and the meat slides right off the bones. Southern influence comes in the tomato, okra and cabbage stew bedding trout, and in the Kentucky country ham sandwich topped with a fried egg. Served with two sugar cookies, the chocolate pot de crème in a regular size coffee cup is the signature wrap-up. Beer pairings are suggested with each dish and tasting menus paired with beers or wines, drawn from a short but smartly chosen list, are offered mid-week. |
