November 9 | THE STEAKHOUSE EDITION
Whiskey, beef & a little Omaha inspiration.
Jamie is off on her biannual steak pilgrimage to Omaha (yes, that's a real thing, and yes, she takes it very seriously). Naturally, a stop at our beloved The Drover means one thing: WHISKEY RIBEYE!
This week we're bringing a little old-school steakhouse swagger back to Wandering Kitchen. Think big beef, classic cocktails (in sauce form), a few nostalgic favorites and one tuna salad that Matthew McConaughey would absolutely approve of.
SALADS & STARTERS
Classic Steakhouse Wedge | $16
Crisp iceberg lettuce, thick-cut bacon, cherry tomatoes, pickled red onions and creamy house blue cheese dressing. Because some classics should never be messed with.
The House Salad | $12
Fresh mixed greens, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes and shaved carrots, tossed with our creamy balsamic dressing. Simple, fresh and always welcome at the table.
Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail | $18
Chilled jumbo shrimp served with our signature saffron aioli, zesty house cocktail sauce and fresh lemon. A steakhouse classic with a Wandering Kitchen twist.
ENTRÉES
All entrées are served with Chef's Choice seasonal vegetables and steakhouse-inspired accompaniments.
The Drover-Inspired Whiskey Ribeye | $38
Beautifully marbled ribeye, whiskey-marinated and grilled to perfection. Served with roasted garlic mashed potatoes and a rich pan jus. Straight from Jamie's Omaha steakhouse playbook.
Filet Tournedos au Poivre | $36
Tender beef filet medallions, pan-seared and finished with a classic green peppercorn and brandy cream sauce. Served with buttery pommes purée. A little French, a little fancy, a whole lot delicious.
Apple & Fennel Stuffed Pork Chop | $29
Thick-cut pork chop stuffed with sautéed apples, fennel, herbs and savory breadcrumbs. Finished with a cider-Dijon pan sauce and roasted potatoes. Fall dressed up for dinner.
Make It Surf & Turf! | +$12
Add succulent Argentinian red shrimp to any entrée. Because sometimes you really can have it all.
EVERYDAY FUEL
Clean, balanced and protein-forward. Each meal includes our ancient grains pilaf and Chef's Choice seasonal vegetables.
Herb-Roasted Chicken Breast | $16
Steak | $18
Pan-Seared Salmon | $20
FRIDGE STOCKERS
Good things to have on hand when cooking is the last thing on your mind.
Tortellini Antipasto Salad | $16
Cheese tortellini tossed with salami, mozzarella, olives, roasted peppers, tomatoes and Italian vinaigrette. Basically an Italian deli in a bowl.
Alright, Alright, Alright! Tuna Salad | $18
Matthew McConaughey's famously unhinged tuna salad gets the Wandering Kitchen treatment. Tuna, pickles, crispy jalapeños, apple, wasabi and a whole lotta personality. Just keep livin', just keep mixin'.
Classic Chicken Salad | $15
Tender roasted chicken, celery, fresh herbs and our creamy house dressing. No bells, no whistles, just really good chicken salad.
Squash Harvest Chowder | $15
Roasted seasonal squash, smoky bacon, sweet corn, potatoes and aromatic vegetables simmered into a rich, creamy autumn chowder. Sweater weather in a bowl.
SOMETHING SWEET
Campfire S'mores Tart | $22 (serves 4)
Buttery graham cracker crust, silky chocolate ganache and toasted marshmallow topping. All the campfire nostalgia, without smelling like one.
A LITTLE NOTE FROM THE ROAD
Some people travel for art. Some for architecture. Jamie travels for steak.
This week's menu is a love letter to Omaha's legendary steakhouse scene, especially The Drover, where the whiskey-marinated ribeye is practically a religious experience. We've brought that inspiration home, added a little Chef C magic and rounded things out with all the comforts of a proper steakhouse dinner.
Bon appétit!
