We had taken a trip to one of our favorite breweries in Wisconsin – Oliphant – and needed to get some dinner before we headed home. We always love driving through Hudson and had passed by Lolo enough times to know they were always busy, so we had to check it out.
The place is upscale, but not quite fancy. The prices aren’t outlandish and the food is much better than average, so you should probably check this place out. They’ve got fancy cocktails, too. We got some!
I got a “That’s a Bold Move Cotton” – cachaça, passion fruit, mango, and lime, and D got the mango passionfruit margarita. Both were extremely tasty (so tasty, we forgot to take photos of D's!).
We started with some Spicy Ahi Poke tasters, with sriracha, sesame, tamari, lemongrass, and nori crisp. Delicious bite-sized snacks that we always want a bucket of, but we know they’re just to get our taste buds going. But, we STILL want a bucket of these things.
We also got the charred asparagus with lemon, parmesan, and guanciale. This was a really stellar dish with so many good flavors. They don’t hold back on this dish, and we were very happy to accept their generosity of flavors.
We got a burger to split a Jamz Burger, which is a really delicious and flavorful burger patty covered in bacon jam, gorgonzola, and lettuce, served with fries. Happy to split this one!
We also got the coconut curry chicken soup, which is always a gamble at a non-Thai restaurant. But, they did a really good job with this. Tons of flavor and just a bit of heat. Glad we ordered this one.
Since you’re really not done until you get dessert, D ordered the flourless chocolate torte, which comes with dulce de leche, hazelnuts, and caramel ice cream – right up her alley.
And, I got the Butterscotch Budino in a tiny mason jar. Perfect ending to the night.
