Potato puree, local green beans, natural jus. $18
Dish, Charles Town WV
The chicken was very tender and flavorful, but it certainly was a small serving. And OMG, both the chicken and mashed potatoes were so effing salty! I thought I might develop a kidney stone if I finished it – gross! The five pieces of green beans didn’t help things out either. Maybe this is God’s way of telling me that I’ve been overeating lately, lol!

Looks good. I miss eating good food. I’ve only liked one restaurant so far in my visit here.
I really love buttermilk! Unfortunately not available here
You can make buttermilk for cooking/baking using 1 cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Combine and let sit for 5 minutes then stir well and use
Yeah I know, it’s sort of like making ricotta. The problem here is that you can’t even get nice milk. It’s always super processed & doesn’t taste good. For baking it would still be okay but for buttermilk centric desserts like buttermilk panna cotta I don’t like to use it. You can get some nice milk for premium prices in Tokyo but anywhere else you’ll have a hard time
