Show 53, December 21, 2013: Celebrity Chef Susan Feniger of The Border Grills and Mud Hen Tavern

Susan Feniger of Mud Hen TavernChef Susan Feniger of Border Grill (Santa Monica, Los Angeles and Las Vegas) and Food Network’s “Too Hot Tamales” fame is back with us to talk about the revamping of Susan Feniger’s Street in Hollywood. It’s been refurbished as the Mud Hen Tavern. The concept is more of a comfortable neighborhood bar and restaurant where regulars can come and hang out more than one time per week.

As with Street the Executive Chef and Partner is Kajsa Alger. Some of Street’s classic favorites remain on the menu including Kaya Toast. A rotating collection of eight craft beers is available on tap. Another eight hand-crafted beers are available in bottles.

Susan enthusiastically recommends the Hangover Burger with a fried egg and bacon and the decadent Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding for dessert. Also there are plenty of offerings for the vegetarian-inclined.

New is the Panini station. Also the wood-burning oven features an expanded menu of pizzas.
