About

MAIN courses are terrific one and all. I love that Kirschner has roast leg of lamb on the menu. You hardly see it anymore. And this one is beautifully cooked to a deep rose and served with Indian-inflected accompaniments -- a velvety pickled tomato and a cool, soothing yogurt raita. Wild mushroom duck pot pie comes under a lid of golden puff pastry -- a brilliant idea. It's replete with chunks of dark-fleshed duck, root vegetables and fresh peas in a rich duck stock and remarkably light for a pot pie. Every menu in town has a grilled Kurobuta pork chop, but Wilshire's wins me over with its accompaniment of a savory apple and sausage ragù and irresistible white corn grits. The pork is also first-rate.
