St. Paul's Muffuletta thinking globally Jeremy Iggers Star Tribune Published January 20, 2005 The tapas of Spain are the theme of this month's specials at Muffuletta in the Park, 2560 Como Av., St. Paul. The biggest selection is offered on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, when eight or more different Iberian appetizers are featured, such as Sherry-braised rabbit with chickpeas and roasted tomatoes, or seared scallops with lobster sauce. But at least a few Spanish starters are featured as specials on other nights of the week. Chef J.D. Fratzke's theme for February sounds equally enticing: It's a global survey of spices, in dishes ranging from nyama choma (Tanzanian spice-rubbed beef) to Moroccan spiced chicken kabobs with harissa, and south Indian meen molee (pomfret and mango simmered in coconut milk). Again, the biggest selection will be midweek, but some dishes will be offered on other days. -- ------------------------------ * * Dr. James Lee Ellingson, Adjunct Professor jellings(a)me.umn.edu * * University of Minnesota, tel: 651/645-0753 fax 651 XXX XXXX * * Great Lakes Brewing News, 1569 Laurel Ave., St. Paul, MN 55104 * ----- End forwarded message ----- -- ------------------------------ * * Dr. James Lee Ellingson, Adjunct Professor jellings(a)me.umn.edu * * University of Minnesota, tel: 651/645-0753 fax 651 XXX XXXX * * Great Lakes Brewing News, 1569 Laurel Ave., St. Paul, MN 55104 * ----- End forwarded message ----- -- ------------------------------ * * Dr. James Lee Ellingson, Adjunct Professor jellings(a)me.umn.edu * * University of Minnesota, tel: 651/645-0753 fax 651 XXX XXXX * * Great Lakes Brewing News, 1569 Laurel Ave., St. Paul, MN 55104 *
