Miel Springs Forward with Menu Additions and New Manager

Posted by Carrington Fox on Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 6:00 AM

Chef Jimmy Phillips is adding to Miel's French-flavored menu as seasonal vegetables come available. Last weekend, he introduced the following items:

  • Steak Tartar ground to order with a slow-cooked egg yolk from McDonald's Farm in Hohenwald, Tenn.
  • Parsnip soup with house-made truffle oil
  • Lamb tenderloin with dried fruit quinoa, stewed greens and warm goat cheese
  • Artichoke cornucopia with Himalayan red rice, melange of vegetables and a lemon-curry emulsion

The menu continues to evolve as produce comes available, so check out the website for the most up-to-date roster.

Along with the new springtime fare, the Phillipses have added longtime friend Paul Hamill--who worked with Jimmy in Chicago--as general manager.

I had hoped it was just a Bites typo, but after checking the menu I see they really do offer "Steak Tartar."
"Tartar" is a hard, calcified deposit, "Tartare" is a food served raw.
It's just so Nashville, sigh.

Ha! My favorite menu offering is still the "Crap Roll" from Benkay. No need to speculate on its side item.
