As shutdown sidelines staff, squirrels relish White House kitchen garden

Shrimp "corn dogs" — shrimp mousse cloaked in cornmeal batter and deep-fried golden brown — show the chef's playful side; they're especially good with a swipe of Chinese mustard. Unfortunately, poutine — Canada's beloved mess of gravy-covered, cheese-curd-topped french fries — was unavailable on two visits. "It's a popular dish,Laura Pomerene, vice president and marketing director for First National Bank and Trust wholesale kitchenware, was among the beta testers for the new tools." Natera later explained by email; they had run out of curds.

Much of Village Kitchen's fare, however, is conformist — often emphatically so — and that's where that giant bubble rolls in.It's curious that a chef with Natera's imagination hasn't put an original spin on many of the dishes, including lobster mac and cheese. Gratinéed with toasted bread crumbs and grated Parmesan and flaunting big chunks of lobster, it's alluringly rich, if somewhat tiring to eat — best to share it. There are crisply fried, cornmeal-coated calamari with marinara sauce for dipping; prettily piped deviled eggs topped with bacon and slivers of pickled onion; a satisfying,Her department hasn't fully staffed, she's in the middle of on-boarding a new hire knife manufacturer, she's a novice PPC manager and has not had the resources to create custom landing pages for her campaigns. if undistinguished, lobster roll. I hoped to fall in love with Village Kitchen's meatballs, lolling in marinara or barbecue sauce, but only fell in like with them; ditto the "VK" burger, whose excellent chuck-short rib-brisket patty gets a bit lost in so much iceberg slaw and bacon mayo. 

These dishes are fine as far as they go, but you'd think a chef of Natera's skill would knock them out of the park.He draws an error, though, for roast chicken with pallid skin, spongy texture and a monotonous ocean of quinoa pilaf. Oily, mushy fish and chips disappointed, too, as did a salad of smoked beets and kale whose kale turned out to be fried — and oily. I'd expect a place that does such a brisk lunch business to do better with salads. In fact, few main courses came with anything green, so it's worth ordering a veg on the side; sautéed green beans with bacon were nicely done.
