Featured DISHES

Broasted Chicken Dinner

CEDAR CHEST RESTAURANT & BAR

On the menu: Four-piece broasted chicken with green beans and au gratin potatoes.

Two sizes every day: The broasted chicken comes in a quarter or a half order with a choice of dark, white or mixed meat. This featured dish is on the menu every day and comes with a choice of soup or salad and not a vegetable, but on Sundays, it is a special and comes with mashed potatoes and gravy and a vegetable.

Goes like hotcakes: The broasted chicken is a fan favorite at the Cedar Chest located just south of Crosslake on Big Pine Lake. The top selling items are the burgers. Broasted not fried: Cedar Chest uses an actual broaster, not a deep fryer to make this dish, which brings out the juiciness of the chicken without making the skin soggy.

MARINATED AHI TUNA POKE BOWL MOREY’S SEAFOOD MARKETS

Inspiration: The dish was created with marinated tuna Morey’s already sold. It includes yellow bell peppers, cucumbers, edamame, shaved carrots and cilantro along with corn chips to give it a crunch all on top of sushi rice. A spicy mayo tops the dish.

Thursday special: This item can be found in Morey’s deli on Thursdays and then on Fridays, Morey’s is still offering its housemade sushi.

Knowledgeable staff: The staff at Morey’s knows fish and seafood. They know how to clean it, prepare it and serve it. The experienced front-of-thehouse staff is eager for you to ask them questions on fish preparation and the kitchen staff is always coming up with exciting dishes for the deli and the food trailer.

Gyro Bites Ox Lake Tavern

Do-It-yourself: The Gyro bites come deconstructed waiting for you to make the perfect bite. The dish comes with lamb, shredded lettuce, tomato, onion and tzatziki sauce served with warm naan. Regardless of how you construct

Small plates: While they might come on small plates, Ox Lake Tavern’s small plate dishes come big with flavor and authenticity. There are deviled eggs and shrimp, Swedish meatballs, a cold soba noodle surf and turf, Mahi tacos along with other options. They also serve salads and handhelds.

Lovely libations: If it’s not already, Ox Lake Tavern will be known for its specialty cocktails after this summer. They include a peach old-fashioned and an espresso martini. But Ox Lake puts a spin on a New York sour, Manhattan and, as they spell it, a My Ty.

Smoked Brisket Tacos

Big Axe Brewing Company

Smoking hot: The brisket is smoked overnight and then seared for added flavor. The gluten-free corn tortillas are smothered with a Monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend and topped with pico, chiffonade romaine lettuce and chipotle aioli.

More smoke: Big Axe smokes all of its own meats including pork shoulder for the pulled pork sandwich, the chicken wings, whole chickens, trout, the ribs, which are coming back for a weekend special, and of course, the brisket.

On tap: Big Axe has 12 beers on tap along with a housemade root beer and cream soda.
