2010-08-28 At Prickly Pear, Mexican food gets real

The menu is a comforting blend of the familiar, such as fajitas, chicken, pork chops, beef and fish, flavored with more authentic ingredients including funky huitlacoche - corn fungus that tastes a little like mushrooms - guajillo peppers and cotija cheese. There is even some prickly pear fruit spread around, in the ball of sweet pink butter that comes with your dinner roll, and in the house cocktail, the Prickly Pear Margarita.

But authenticity doesnt mean you cant have fun. Did we mention they have really big margaritas Guacamole is prepared tableside, from a big tray of fresh avocado, pico de gallo, olive oil and diced jalapenos so you can designate your heat level. With the natural fattiness of avocado, adding a drizzle of olive oil seems redundant. But the fruitiness of the oil brings out the nuttiness of the avocado, resulting in a dip worth fighting for with your last tortilla chip.

2010-08-20 Now thats Italian . or is it

Six years ago, I really dove in, speaking to my mom, her boyfriend, my grandfathers and uncles," he says. "The Italian food here is too fancy. I want to make the food the nonnas (grandmothers) make. I dont want to innovate. I want to preserve. But its hard to capture that rustic spirit. In Italy, everything they need grows around them. We import a lot. Pasta I can make here; cold cuts, too. The meats, the eggs and even porcini mushrooms from Quebec or B. C. are very good. But theres nothing to compare with the olives from Le Marche, the anchovies and sea salt from Sicily, the Balsamico from Modena, and all the great olive oil. And then there are the nuts, and cheeses like Burrata and Parmigiano Reggiano. All that needs to be imported. "
