Veal cheeks?

[BobB]

Had these in NYC this past weekend - braised, served with sauteed wild mushrooms and caramelized cipollito onions - and it was absolutely one of the best dishes I've tasted in years, incredibly rich and tender. Who does veal cheeks in Boston? And does anyone know a butcher who sells them so I can make my own?

Recently had some incredible veal cheeks at Troquet, as part of the veal tasting (sweetbreads and the loin). They were rich and velvety.

La Voile on Newbury serves excellent Kobe beef cheeks that are prepared in a burgundy sauce.

I've had terrific veal cheeks at Clio a couple months ago. I love them also!

Best I ever had were at Chez Henri (dining room, not the bar) as a daily special about 3-4 years go - worth searching out to see if they still feature them and then making a special trip!

I actually just picked up some today at John Dewar's in Wellesley. I ordered them last week. Very expensive for what most people throw out, $18.99 a pound. 5 pound minimum. Hope this helps. If you are near Concord or Framingham, I'll split mine.

I had them at sorellina and they were so tender and scrumptious.

The Butcher Shop in the South End might also help, at predictably scary prices.

I'm going to give this one bump to see if anyone knows of a restaurant in Boston offering veal cheeks.

iirc Aujourdhui in the Four Seasons serves them

I'm sure both Savenor's and John Dewars would be able to get them if you pre-ordered them.
