Elk Burger at Tierra Sur
Posted in: Restaurant & Food News | May 4th, 2009
Tierra Sur kosher restaurant located on the grounds of Herzog Wine Cellars in Oxnard has added an elk burger to the menu. Chef Todd Aarons offers the burger on his wine taster’s menu where it’s topped with aioli and hedgehog mushrooms. On the brunch menu, the burger is served open-faced over a slice of brioche, topped with a sunny-side-up egg and maple-glazed lamb bacon. Elk meat is an unmarbled red meat that’s low in fat and high in protein. Aarons suggests pairing it with Herzog’s 2007 Pinot Noir from San Luis Obispo County.
