 Emeril's Restaurant Review: You won’t spot Emeril Lagasse in his eponymous restaurant very often, but his staff of talented culinarians is on the job. Huge barbecue shrimp come enrobed in a robustly seasoned brown sauce; redfish are coated with a crumble of andouille sausage; and the king of desserts à la Emeril is the mightiest banana cream pie imaginable. Consider the mac ‘n’ cheese entrée with Gulf shrimp, vermouth cream and brioche crumbs. Meat lovers will go for the huge double-cut pork chop with caramelized sweet potatoes. Another dessert to consider is the ginger cake with coconut sorbet and hot fudge. The wine list, under the expert guidance of sommelier Ray Gumpert, is as thick as a Russian novel and well composed, with a fair number of bottles priced below $35. Professional service teams keep things humming at the tables. The food bar affords a panoramic view of the kitchen. Framed like a stage's proscenium arch, its border of back-lit glass cases hold colorful seeds, grains and spices. If there is a downside to Emeril’s, it is the noise level and the menu is a bit pricy compared to similar local restaurants. |
