with pepper, proscuitto, shaved reg-
giano cheese, pesto cream and olive
tapenade.
Loving Spoonful has its own smoker
... and so the delightful appetizer of
smoked Norwegian salmon ... People
also enjoy the appetizer of fresh, warm
goat cheese with sage almond toast
and fire-roasted tomato salsa.
On the daily features are always one
or more fresh fish specials ... And
although the five-onion soup and
sweet corn and shrimp bisque have
taken off with rapid ordering, the
biggest favorite seems to be a lemon-
grass and tomato broth with vegetables
and roasted leek and garlic custard.
There's also a pan-seared veal chop
that is drawing raves ... made with a
port wine demi-glaze.
A bakery section has been added
where the restaurant's own bread is
made ... Caramelized onion challah,
rustic country wheat, etc. ... Shawn also
makes the pastries, like sweet potato
pie, lemon tart, brioche bread pudding,
chocolate cake, Key lime and coconut
trifle, etc. ... The latter is a delicious
Key West lime mousse layered with
fresh raspberries and sponge cake.
Shawn Loving ... now you know where
the name Loving Spoonful comes from ...
has much good experience behind him in
the operation of an upscale restaurant ...
His simplistic cooking methods in the
preparation of contemporary American
cuisine are standouts.
STILL CONSIDERED by many as
being among the No. 1 gourmet
Chinese restaurants in the metropoli-
tan Detroit area, Hong Hua continues
to do what it started out doing.
Rather than ride with its successful,
prize-winning menu attractions, Hong
Hua, on Orchard Lake Road north of
12 Mile Road in Farmington Hills, is
still presenting new dishes that are
rarely ... if ever ... seen anywhere else.
Yellow grouper with healthy bean
skin can be gotten as either an appetiz-
er or entree ... and has a fresh taste
that comes with expert preparation of
this fine fish.
Shrimp rolled in a scallop *wrapping
is abundantly sprinkled with fresh
fried garlic and chopped peanuts in
giving a fantastically delicious taste ...
There is enough for two people on the
appetizer or entree servings ... The
entree has eight large pieces of sheer
elegance in dining.
Shrimp with soft lychee nuts and
lychee sauce, with green and red pep-
pers and onions, is without equal ...
Entree only.
