Besh's Domenica Gets Rave Review

Examiner.com food writer Anne Berry recently offered the following review of John Besh's Domenica (in the renovated historic Roosevelt Hotel).  Here's a taste of that review:


Proving that simple is often best, the summer pizza at Domenica is topped with chunky zucchini, yellow squash, and a slather of San Rossano tomatoes and burrata cheese. The tomato sauce is both local and authentic - the tomato seeds came from Italy and were planted and harvested for Chef Besh on a hundred-acre farm north of Covington, La.

With its gooey, runny qualities, burrata is a better fit than mozzarella for the grilled squash, and helps make for a sweet and juicy crust.

It's a pretty, sunny pie, perfect with the summer salads also blooming on Domenica's menu. I especially liked the fleshy, tri-melon salad with soft prosciutto strips and balsamic vinegar; you might also try the salad of slivered cucumbers tossed with mint, arugula, olive oil and a bite of white pepper. A few more crumbles of quartirolo cheese would make this an even more substantial starter.

John Besh's 'My New Orleans: The Cookbook' Hits Shelves

Courtesy chefjohnbesh.com:
    Chef John Besh, noted New Orleans chef of five popular restaurants - including his flagship restaurant, August, Besh Steak, Luke, La Provence, and the newly opened Domenica inside the Roosevelt Hotel, has added something else to his plate: author. Chef Besh's first cookbook, My New Orleans hits booksellers' shelves around the country today, October 6, with much anticipation.

    My New Orleans is a celebration of the food he loved as a boy growing up on the bayous of Louisiana and later refined during his years studying around the world. My New Orleans is different than the traditional cookbook; it is a unique culinary tour of the flavors and ingredients found in New Orleans and Louisiana celebrated through festivals, feast days, and holidays. It offers a history of the city and its dishes while ensuring the home cook achieves success with chef Besh's recipes. The 200 recipes preserve New Orleans' traditions and ingredients and include classics such as Seafood Gumbo, Crawfish Etouffee, Jambalaya and Shrimp and Grits to chef Besh's more contemporary dishes.

    A portion of the proceeds from the sale of My New Orleans will be donated to Café Reconcile, a New Orleans-based non-profit organization dedicated to providing at-risk youth an opportunity to learn life and interpersonal skills as well as operational training necessary for successful entry into the hospitality and restaurant industries.

    The next stop for Chef Besh is The National World War II Museum tomorrow where his newest restaurant, The American Sector, will open next month. Chef Besh will premiere My New Orleans: The Cookbook from 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm.
