A pop-up restaurant that travels around the country and only opens a few times each year. The chef/operator found his success in another field and uses the restaurant as a stress reliever.
I had Mr. Thor pegged as an excellent chef from the moment we met. He did not disappoint. He provides an option to eat your meal with a form of sensory deprivation that makes the flavors of the food so much more intense.
There is no menu. You receive whatever he decides to make. On my visit, the first course was delicious. I have no clue what it was. Sensory deprivation... It was an orgy of flavor in my mouth. My taste buds were held hostage by the mixture of what tasted like scrambled eggs, onion, salt and pepper. It sounds simple, but had an unparalleled synergy.
He followed up with the main of beef, brussels, and mashed potatoes. The sensory deprivation ended which makes sense due to the knife needed for the meat. I wish I snapped a pic because presentation is half the battle and he knocked it out of the park.
The entire meal was splendid. The beef was cooked to the perfect temperature. The potatoes were mashed with skin on and chunks of garlic which added a flavor and texture that I haven't experienced in mashed potatoes. It also isn't a side I typically order. The brussels were tasty and tender. Cooked all the way through and were served without any fancy sauces or dressings. Tmsimple goes a ling way.
If you ever have the opportunity to experience this pop-up shop, I cant recommend it enough. It truly is a once in a lifetime experience. read more
