Hazel, Ravines and Downtown co-owners Beth Hussey and Executive Chef Emmele Herrold have announced a new seasonal and holiday menu inspired by the Pacific Northwest. Herrold makes the most of fall flavors in comforting dishes like Walla Walla onion soup, the wild, wild west salad, rich crab Louis and spicy mussels and sausage. This season also marks the return of Pacific Northwest crab rolls and appetizers such as classic escargot and cheesy Astoria clown bread. Diners won’t want to miss the Seattle hot dog, an essential food of the Pacific Northwest, which is topped with cream cheese, caramelized onions and jalapenos. Due to popular request, Hazel’s will still offer some tried-and-true favorites, like its hot or cold lobster rolls, token burger and fried chicken. Cocktails will feature regional ingredients and are inspired by the location itself. Expect fresh drinks named for Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California and British Columbia. Guests can also enjoy wines from Washington state and beers by award-winners like Alaskan Brewing Co. and Deschutes Brewery. Northwest Seafood runs throughout the fall and holiday season until Dec. 30, 2021. 1 Peabody Street, Birmingham. hrd.kitchen.com
