On most menus this would probably have been called Liver & Onions, and I've wanted to blog a good version of this for some time. I got my chance today at a country cafe where the liver was superb and cost half of what I would have paid elsewhere. The liver was cornmeal encrusted, which gave the exterior a nice crunch, and it was obviously grilled on a flattop. I got two generous slices, with plenty of grilled onion, and the flavor was quite possibly the best I've had. I took the choice of sliced fresh tomatoes instead of potatoes, and for my bread I chose the cornbread which came with honey-flavored butter. A vegetable was also included which, in my case, was carrot slices with melted butter and honey. The carrots and honey added sweetness to the savory liver, and the tomato slices added freshness and a touch of sour. The staff were extremely friendly, and so were the other customers, many of whom showed up with their dogs (we all ate outside). This was a noteworthy liver and onions experience.
