Tonight I had Bacon Ice Cream and it was awesome

My dad and I have been a big fan of Michael Symon on food network for awhile now. So, I am back at my folks house in Cleveland for the long weekend and I took my parents and wife to his restaurant, Lola.

This has easily been one of the best dining experiences I have had (with Ad Hock coming in as a close 2nd.) I highly recommend this place to any foodie.

Items ordered and tried:

Pork Belly with Crispy Pig Ear (and Melon and thai basil) - Amazing, one of the best items on the menu

Crispy Bone Marrow (veal marrow with various accouterment) tasty

Pork Charcuterie - various pork products - mmmm

Pork Chops with a honey marscopone polenta and BBQ onions....fricking awesome

Lola Fries - cooked in lard with rosemary and thyme...tasty

I also tried a bite of the duck (mom ordered it)....amazing

Oh yeah dessert:

Donuts with Cinnamon Chocolate dipping sauce - simple and unreal, soooo good.

Fruit and Creme Parfait - another simple sounding dessert executed to in exquisite fashion

The 6 A.M. Dessert - Brioche french toast, caramelized apples, and......bacon ice cream with chunks of bacon. - Very very good.

That's food that someone would actually pay for?
