Meat in meat

Shady Lady Saloon got a new menu last week, and if meatloaf’s your bag, then strap on your finest dress bib and get over there for their bacon-wrapped offering ($17). Sure, you could also check out their other new stuff like foie gras, mussels, a veggie sandwich, etc., but how is any of that better than a hunk of meat wrapped in meat and drowning in brown gravy? It’s finely ground, cooked to a light pink at the center and rests on a bed of mashed potatoes alongside crisp green beans in a meaningless gesture toward healthfulness. 1409 R Street, http://shadyladybar.com.
