Rosemary’s has been so good for so long (eleven years and counting) that we take it for granted sometimes. But a meal there last week had us licking our chops and swooning over the Belgian beer and food matches trotted out by Manager (and uber-beer-guy) Mike Shetler.

SHUSEKI
Shuseki appears to be under new management. The previous menu had about forty printed items. (We were particularly fond of the ramen, gyoza (pot stickers) and raw, wasabi octopus.) The new menu has 179 listed dishes — each with an accompanying photograph.
CAFE HEIDELBERG
It is a well known, historical fact that entire wars have been lost because of German food. Throughout history, the German Army has pretty much had its way with its opponents until lunchtime. But after a typical repast of butterschnitzel (breaded veal fried in butter), kalbsieber mit zwebein und apfein (calves liver with apples), buletten (Berlin meatballs), a wurst platter, sprats, eisbein (pork knuckle), two kinds of kraut, a dumpling the size of your head, some strudel mit schlag, bier, und schnapps….remounting (a horse or a tank) became difficult to impossible. That’s when everyone from Marcus Aurelius to Napoleon to George Patton made their move.
