Ahi at Atlas

April 23, 2008

Last week I got the chance to taste the upcoming “Wild About…” menu, which is the ever stellar Ahi Tuna. The menu is a beautiful mix of the traditional and the new. As usual, of course, we have the special swimmer available breakfast lunch and dinner. Ahi for breakfast doesn’t seem like as much of a stretch as some of the other early morning fish fun we’ve had, but you can’t have been expecting something this spectacular.

There she is, the Ahi Benedict. Aside from being beautiful, it tasted refreshing and delicious, more over it lacked the heaviness general associated with Benedict. No ham or hollandaise in this house.

At lunch we’ll be serving up a classic that we didn’t even want to mess with. Nicoise Salad doesn’t need any adjusting to fit into the rotating monthly menu, as it tradtionally comes with tuna.

Totally traditional, totally delicious. The dinner items follow in a similar vein, with two raw ahi appetizers, one and Asian tartare and the other a poisson cru. For the entrees, Emily will be serving up a spiced ahi on warm potatos and an amazing Ahi pasta with prosciutto.
