Elizabeth Large reviews Bryan Voltaggio's Volt

Guest poster Carla here. If you missed it over the weekend, Baltimore Sun restaurant critic and Dining@Large blogger Elizabeth Large took a trip out to Frederick to review Volt, restaurant of "Top Chef" contestant Bryan Voltaggio.

Large says: "But is his statement food worth the considerable price tag and the trek from Baltimore? Or is Volt an emperor's-new-clothes phenomenon?

"If you're serious about food and don't mind a touch of whimsy, the answer is: Yes, Volt is worth the trip and the cost."

Large describes goat cheese ravioli with a scattering of toasted pumpkin seeds, chanterelles and brown butter, and fresh halibut arranged with ruby quinoa, winter squash and marcona almonds.

Anyone want to go to dinner with me?

I had that ravioli a few weeks ago, and it was the highlight. Sooo good.

Sounds good. Being Italian that sounds right down our alley. I wonder if the recipe is on the internet. I like these posts about food shows. :)
