Hudson's Lobster & King Crab Salad; Grilled Baby Bok Choy
Options

Posts: 2,095
While putting up all the books my 18-month old pulled off the shelf, I rediscovered the Hudson's On The Bend "Fire It Up" cookbook and did two dishes from it.
The salad is fantastic, almost like a ceviche but sweeter (and cooked seafood). Expensive though...probably would have been fine with shrimp instead of lobster and king crab, but what the heck.
The baby bok choy was great but I misread the recipe and didn't get enough, it called for 4-6 whole heads and I was thinking leaves. Regardless, very good and will repeat.

Brother I don't know how I missed this post. Lobster is one of my very favorites and those look wonderful. Excellent job. Allow me:

Brother those lobsters would not have made it to the green stuff. I would have devoured them right off of the grill the second that they were done!!

@CPARKTX: Great looking food you had!! We are big fans of Hudson's on the Bend. I have both of his cookbooks and have taken many cooking classes at Chef Blank's house. If you haven't ever taken a class from him, I highly recommend it. Lots of fun and lots to learn!KelleyEgging with No Joke Smoke (Bruce), enjoying small town life in Brenham, TX., the home of Blue Bell Ice Cream.

@EggObsessed I have done the cooking class a couple of times and it is a blast. Love the restaurant...but I think it has dropped a notice in recent years, what do you think?LBGE & SBGE. Central Texas.

@CPARKTX: We had never gone to Hudson's until a couple of years ago, so I can't really compare it to years past. I think going there is a really unique experience and will continue to go there. My feeling is that it feels a little "dated", like from the 90's. Chef Blank appears to have had a stroke and is no longer able to speak as clearly or move as well. This could be part of the problem. I thinkn he has had to pass the baton to his chefs that work for him and is not as involved. This is purely speculation, though. As I said, I think it's such a unique place and very warm and cozy, especially if you sit in the room with the fireplace. My favorite dish is the Hot and Crunch Ruby Trout!KelleyEgging with No Joke Smoke (Bruce), enjoying small town life in Brenham, TX., the home of Blue Bell Ice Cream.
