Perfect Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe

THE PERFECT HOLIDAY PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE
by Henry's in Delray

Ingredients
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 3/4 cups sugar
Salt
2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream
1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin
6 large eggs, at room temperature, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups sweetened whipped cream
1/3 cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped

Directions
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

Brush a 10-inch springform pan with some of the butter. Stir the remaining butter with the crumbs, 1/4 cup of the sugar and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, packing it tightly and evenly. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on a rack, then wrap the outside of the springform pan with foil and place in a roasting pan.

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, beat the cream cheese with a mixer until smooth. Add the remaining 2 1/2 cups sugar and beat until just light, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beaters as needed. Beat in the sour cream, then add the pumpkin, eggs, vanilla, 1 teaspoon salt and the spices and beat until just combined. Pour into the cooled crust.

Gently place the roasting pan in the oven (don't pull the rack out) and pour the boiling water into the roasting pan until it comes about halfway up the side of the springform pan. Bake until the outside of the cheesecake sets but the center is still loose, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Turn off the oven and open the door briefly to let out some heat. Leave the cheesecake in the oven for 1 more hour, then carefully remove from the roasting pan and cool on a rack. Run a knife around the edges, cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.

Bring the cheesecake to room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Unlock and remove the springform ring. To finish, place a dollop of the whipped cream on each slice and sprinkle with the toasted pecans.

"Sideway's" Wine Dinner & Movie Event at Bogart's Bar & Grille





Bogart’s Bar & Grille to Host Sideways Dinner and Movie Charity Event Featuring Famed Chef

Proceeds to Benefit Jimmy Mancbach Memorial Scholarship Foundation

Boca Raton, FL – September 29, 2008 – Bogart’s Bar & Grille will be hosting a Sideways dinner and movie event to benefit the Jimmy Mancbach Memorial Scholarship Foundation on Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 7 p.m. The scholarship honors Jimmy Mancbach’s dream of creating a scholarship for up-and-coming fine wine professionals.

The Oscar award-winning movie Sideways was filmed in California’s wine country, where famed chef, Frank Ostini, the special guest of the event, is the proprietor of the Hitching Post Restaurant, which was featured in Sideways, and winemaker of Hartley Ostini Vineyards. The dinner will feature the authentic Hitching Post menu and wines from the Sideways region, including Loring, Au Bon Climat, Hartley Ostini and others.

“We really wanted to honor Jimmy’s dream and felt that it was important to tie in pieces of the California wine area that he spent so much time at. It is an honor to have Frank Ostini joining us for this event and we hope to raise a significant amount of money to benefit the Foundation,” stated Burt Rapoport, owner of Bogart’s Bar & Grille.

The annual recipients of the scholarship travel to specially selected wineries during harvest, where they work with some of the most talented and celebrated winemakers and viticulturists in the wine industry. This year, the foundation sent out three recipients and Southern Wine & Spirits matched the necessary funds to enable these scholarships.

Dinner and a Movie: Bogart's Bar & Grille Touts A Tasty Double Feature a review by Kenny Spahn



BEING THAT THIS IS AN ENTERTAINMENT themed issue, it seems only fitting that we feature Bogart's Bar & Grille. Located on the premier level of Muvico Palace 20, Bogart;s not only offers a unique venue in which to catch dinner and a movie but fantastic dining experience in its own right. Then again, we would expect no less from successful restaurateur Burt Rapoport.
Bogart's ambiance is as entertaining ad any movie: Choose the casual bistro area, where tables offer front-row seats to the lively bar action, or retreat to the back dining room for a more intimate setting. No matter where you dine, service remains prompt, professional and friendly under the smooth direction of General Manager John Maddalena.
The menu includes select favorites from Rapoport restaurants ( call it "The Best of Burt). Where else can you savor mahogany chicken wings from Max's grille and wasabi seared tuna from Opus 5 at the same table? Executive Chef Chuck Gittleman offers some new classic as well, such as Bogart's meatballs, pulled-pork taquitos and black-angus sliders. Our favorite 'appetizer' however, is the grilled portobello sandwich, served with homemade mozzarella cheese and grilled tomato on a whole-wheat ciabatta.
Deciding on an entree is no easy task, with the likes of blue cheese-crusted filet mignon, herb seared ruby red trout, grilled pork chop with sweet potato mash, lemon-roasted chicken and Henry's old fashioned pot roast. But you'll never go wrong with the signature onion-crusted snapper with its subtly sweet onion crust and bold Madeira finish, all set atop a puff of mashed potatoes and presented with gently sauteed, very fresh spinach. Lighter options include a Mediterranean chicken pita and a balsamic-grilled chicken salad.
The wine list features Burt's own Cuvee, a Meritage-like blend with well-structured layers of dark cherry and spice and evolving tannins leading to a long, soft finish, For the finale, the old-fashioned, deep-dish blueberry pie topped with homemade vanilla ice cream is as good as it gets!


By Kenny Spahn


Bogart's is located on the premiere level of Muvico Palace 20 at 3200 Airport Rd., Boca Raton. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner (with or without a movie.) Contact them at 561-544-3044 or visit http://www.bogartsofboca.com/

Celebrate July 4th at Bogart'a Bar & Grille. Will it be fireworks or Hancock?






Our great debate this week at Bogart’s Bar and Grille, is whether Hancock the Movie or celebratory fireworks are going to be the “Big Bang” this upcoming Fourth of July. The debate began when our staff started discussing Hancock weekend and if more South Floridians prefer to be inside the cool air conditioned theater dining on our sliders, onion crusted snapper or wasabi crusted tuna rather than baking outside, watching fireworks and praying that the rain will hold off for just one more hour.
As tradition has taught us, native Floridians are immune to the heat and stay outside enjoying the rain, storms and wet chairs, while the new generation of out of town Floridians now living here, flock to the malls, theaters and restaurants to seek refuge in the cooler climate. One thing however, remains the same, we as a population love to watch pretty colors light up the sky while grabbing on to a loved one going, “Wow, that one is the best so far.”
This year the management and staff of Bogart’s Bar and Grille invite you to try something new. While it’s raining outside come enjoy lunch, dinner or both while watching Hancock or any movie that grabs your fancy. Our food in unforgettable, our staff is eager to please and filled with personality, our bar is stocked with your preferred cocktail and your favorite dish is anxiously awaiting your arrival….
Happy Fourth of July, we look forward to spending it with you.

Roll Back to 1995 with Henry's Restaurant!


At Henry’s of Boca we are constantly striving to provide our guests with a memorable dining experience that’s not only delicious, but that also comes at a value. In today’s economic climate, with gas prices on the rise and the cost of some food items increasing as well, its imperative that we continue to give our guests valuable options when they choose to dine with us at Henry’s.

This summer we are offering up two ways to save with our classic “20 for $20” wine list and the introduction of Henry’s Spring Prix Fixe. The wine list features 20+ bottles of wine, from robust reds to crisp summer whites that can all be enjoyed for taste and value at $19.95 a bottle. The Spring Prix Fixe Menu is being offered at 19.95 per person and is a prix fix that offers a choice between fresh soup or salad, followed by a selection of six entrees including our Mahi Mahi with stir fried Asian vegetables, wasabi mashed potatoes and a sweet teriyaki sauce, or the Dijon Crumb crusted chicken Milano, with sautéed spinach, sweet potatoes raviolis, and Dijon-Cream sauce, just to mention a few. And then to finish it all off, guests will be treated to a choice between three of our delectable desserts.

Our goal at Henry’s is for every guest who walks through our doors to receive great food and great drink at a value that will resonate and keep them coming back to us for many years. When you dine at Henry’s this summer, feel confident that you know what you’ll be spending and that you’ll be receiving the best quality, value and service for your money. Cheers!

Iron Man hits Bogart's Bar & Grille!!







Iron hit the fans last weekend with an early start of Iron Man the movie by Marvel Comics, Thursday 8pm at Muvico Palace 20. It sold an estimated $100.8 million in tickets at North American theatres and an estimated $200 million plus world-wide.
Oscar nominee Robert Downey Jr. stars as Tony Stark/Iron Man in the story of a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man. The film also stars Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow and Oscar nominees Terrence Howard and Jeff Bridges.
Many movie fans will remember Jeff Bridges from his role as ‘The Dude’ in the cult classic movie The Big Lebowski. Downey Jr. was a great choice for the lead role. It was refreshing to see a seasoned actor with amazing talent, but a name not bigger than the role itself play a superhero. This is the same way I felt with seeing Christian Bale play Batman in Batman Begins. I am looking forward to the new Batman movie, Dark Knight, which premiers July 18th, 2008 and features Heath Ledger’s last work, playing the role of The Joker opposite Christian Bale.
Iron Man is currently playing in five of our six Premier Level Theatres (must be 21 or older) at Muvico Palace in Boca Raton, and there are approximately 18 showings everyday. Movie tickets can be purchased online at
http://www.muvico.com/. Grab dinner and a drink at Bogart’s and bring them into the theatre with you for the ultimate dinner and Iron Man experience!

"Salt & Pepper Puts a Roof Over Our Head" Salt, and It's Importance In Cooking


My fond interest of salt began when I had just started a new job at the restaurant I will soon call home once again. I was a daytime grill man and for the first 2 weeks I was not salting my food, the chef of course noticed this immediately and berated me about it daily. He called me "salt and pepper" and then everyone else began to as well. I didn't understand how important these little granules actually were until I began to taste things with and without it. The quote above, (see title) is from the very Chef who gave me this nickname and it has been one of the best lessons that I have learned during my culinary career. To this day I will still answer to that name. When I began to taste differences in the food I was producing I started to see what the Chef had been talking about and pounding into my head all this time.
Salt is a vital part of our lives and well being. It has many effects on the body, it is an essential component of our diet and keeps the body running correctly. NaCi (sodium chloride) or better known as salt, breaks down in the body and provides it with Sodium which the body is not able to manufacture on it's own. Sodium is a primary electrolyte and is vital to almost all of the body's movements and nerve impulses, without it we would not be able to function. It also provides the body with Chloride which is essential to our digestive and respiratory systems. It is also essential for osmosis, which is the process in which enables water to travel through the cell walls. This is vital in keeping osmotic pressure of the body's cells at an equilibrium. Bust as we all know to much, salt can also be dangerous for the human body. It can cause dehydration, through the process of osmosis the cell's water is pulled out by the sodium and the body can dehydrate. It can also cause high blood pressure which can damage blood cells and cause stroke or heart attack. This is the reason why we have seen such a boost in the amounts of "low sodium" diets out there in the past few years.
Another important food enhancing technique that involves the use of salt is brining. Brining is generally done with the solution of salt, water and sugar. It can be done to all types of meats as well as vegetables. When brining meats, the meat is submerged in the salt solution for an amount time, in which the salt is able to penetrate into the meat and flavor the inner most parts of the meat. It also enables the meat to absorb water and keep the natural juices inside of it. This is due to the high concentration of salt and water on the outside of the meats cell walls. Without the presence of slat in our food there would be no flavor or taste, it would be bland and would not reach out grab your taste buds like the food that is considered to be great does.
Thank goodness for salt!

Bogart's Concession Offers Healthy Alternatives to Traditional Theater Candy and Popcorn.




For eons, a night at the movies has gone hand in hand with indulging in popcorn, candy, soda, nachos, and every other temptation offered at the theater's concession. This sugary, buttery feast is all fun and games for children's fast metabolisms. However, as we age our metabolisms slow and we begin to suffer consequences from such indulgences.

At Bogart's Bar and Grille, your movie-going experience can mature along with you, guilt-free. We offer a variety of healthy alternatives to traditional theater snacks. In addition to our candies, gourmet chocolates, and complimentary popcorn (free with the purchase of a Premier seating movie ticket), we have salads, pita wraps, bottled waters, and smoothies.

Our new Mixed Berry Smoothie, a delicious blend of fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, pineapple juice, sorbet, and no fat yogurt, is a great way to snack healthy. Add an optional Protein Boost and make it a meal substitute. If you are dining in the restaurant, avoid the concession line by ordering a Mixed Berry Smoothie from your server. It is an excellent lite dessert, perfect for sharing with your date after a heavy meal.

WHY ON THIS NIGHT DO WE EAT AT HENRY’S of BOCA RATON, FL?


Only a few of us know that there are really 5 questions for Passover.
Four of those questions were answered by God, but the fifth question?
The fifth question is: why on this night do we eat at Henry’s?
Which leads us to a sixth question: Why, instead of sitting and enjoying the company of your family and friends, would you spend hours on end cooking dish after dish (and later cleaning dish after dish), cleaning the house, setting the table for the adults, another table for the kids, serving the food, only to be rewarded by washing all the dishes, putting everything away, AND THEN doing it all again the NEXT night!

Why go through all that trouble when you know that Chef Joseph Giannuzzi and the staff at Henry’s can do it all for you!

The tradition continues year after year at Henry’s, and this year Seder dinner will be offered April 19th and 20th . There are seating's available for you and your family to dine and enjoy the holiday together. We are offering a prie fixe 4 course traditional Seder menu or one can order ala carte.

And everything is also available for you to take home,
nobody will know you didn’t make it yourself,
let us make your matza balls and prepare the brisket,
you can take the credit, we won’t tell.

Call for more information and reservations.

Henry's / Delray Beach Sun Sentinel Review


Henry's is a bustling restaurant serving upscale contemporary cuisine and American comfort food that's a cut above.Early-bird specials offer a great value; the restaurant is very busy during the early hours of the evening.The wine list is excellent, offering a very good selection at various prices. The full bar is well stocked with excellent top shelf and well liquors.
Even though the restaurant is busy, the service is attentive. Many of the staff are longtime employees, an excellent indicator of a well-run restaurant.I couldn't help overhearing the staff calling many of the patrons by name.More than a few customers proudly offered suggestions and commentary when they heard that it was my first visit.Henry's Magical Split Pea Soup ($5.95) is a vegetarian creation that boasts excellent flavor.The tuna tartare ($12.95) is elegant, light and served with an exotic papaya slaw for an interesting contrast.Starter and main plate salads are a little pricey, but the quality of the greens and the upscale extra ingredients justify the cost.The charred tomato vinaigrette served on the chopped roasted vegetable salad ($9.95) is an innovative twist to salad dressing and definitely worth a try on any of the salads.The entree selection is excellent, with something for everyone.The gourmet pot roast ($24.95) comes highly recommended, as does Henry's signature chicken pot pie ($18.95). Another signature item at Henry's are daily specials of country chicken casseroles ($17-$19), which are large helpings brimming with various regional chicken entrees such as Southern-fried, cacciatore and coq au vin.Don't let these simple items mislead you into thinking that Henry's is a diner.Even the simplest of fare gets upscale treatment with excellent ingredients, large portions, innovative side dishes and beautiful presentation.Upscale items include Dijon and Crumb-Encrusted Chicken Milano served with sweet potato ravioli ($18.95) and Roast Duck with fig-balsamic glaze ($23.95) plated with spaghetti squash and mushroom barley pilaf.A rather uncommon item, Ruby Red Trout with wild rice and amaretto buerre blanc ($21.95), was served to a person at the next table; the presentation was simple and refined, the aroma of the salmon-colored trout was wonderful.The desserts change often, but if available I highly recommend the banana cream and coconut cream pies ($8.95).These are given the star treatment and what could be ordinary is transformed into extraordinary.The banana cream has a golden topping ... literally. There is what appears to be gold leaf mixed into a crumb topping.This is a unique and spectacular finish to a wonderful dining experience.

Leblon's Cachaca brings Brazil to Opus 5 in Boca


New to the back bar as of last week is a spirit that is used to make the national cocktail of Brazil- the Caipirinha. It is cachaca, a rum-like liquor made from fresh sugarcane and legally only made in Brazil. It is distilled only once to preserve its fresh aromas of green herbs and citrus. Leblon's cachaca is then barrel aged in old cognac casks for one to three months and triple filtered to achieve it's smooth texture in the mouth. To make a Caipirinha-also known as a Brazilian Mojito-our bartenders muddle fresh limes, add simple syrup for balance, pour in Leblon cachaca, add ice, shake vigorously, and garnish with a lime wedge. A perfectly refreshing drink for our tropical South Florida evenings. For more ideas and information, go to www.liveloveleblon.com

Romantic Valentine's Day Dessert from Rapoport's Restaurant Group

chocolate heart layer cake with chocolate-cinnamon mousse

Look for the heart-shaped cake ring at cake and candy supply stores, or call Jane's Cakes and Chocolates at 800-262-7630. You can also use a buttered and floured 8-inch round cake pan with 2-inch-high sides.
Servings: Makes 4 servings.


Ingredients
Cake
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar

Mousse Base
1 cup heavy whipping cream
4 cinnamon sticks, broken in half

Mousse, Cake Assembly, and Glaze
2/3 cup cherry jam
2 tablespoons kirsch (clear cherry brandy)
4 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon chai-spiced tea leaves or Lapsang souchong smoked black tea leaves (from 1 tea bag)
5 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
Preparation For Cake:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 8x8x2-inch heart-shaped cake ring on sheet of foil. Wrap foil up sides of ring. Brush foil and inside of ring with 1 tablespoon butter; dust with flour. Place on baking sheet.
Sift flour, cocoa, and salt into medium bowl. Combine eggs and sugar in large metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water). Whisk until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from over water. Using electric mixer, beat mixture until thick and billowy and heavy ribbon falls when beaters are lifted, about 5 minutes. Sift half of dry ingredients over; fold in gently. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients. Transfer 1/4 cup batter to small bowl; fold in 3 tablespoons butter. Gently fold butter mixture into batter; do not overmix or batter will deflate. Transfer batter to ring.

Bake cake until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer cake with foil to rack; cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and store at room temperature.)
For Mousse Base:
Bring whipping cream and cinnamon sticks just to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Remove from heat; let steep 1 hour at room temperature. Cover and refrigerate cinnamon cream overnight.
For Mousse, Cake Assembly, and Glaze:
Blend jam and kirsch in small bowl. Cut around sides of cake; lift off ring. Using metal spatula, loosen cake from foil and transfer to rack. Using serrated knife, cut cake horizontally in half. Using tart pan bottom, transfer top cake layer to work surface; turn cut side up. Spread half of jam on cut side of both cake layers.

Strain cinnamon cream into large bowl; beat until soft peaks form. Stir finely chopped chocolate in heavy small saucepan over low heat until smooth. Quickly fold warm chocolate into whipped cream (chocolate must be warm to blend smoothly). Immediately drop mousse by dollops over bottom cake layer; spread to within 3/4 inch of edge. Gently press second layer, jam side down, atop mousse. Smooth sides of cake with offset spatula. Chill assembled cake on rack while preparing glaze.

Bring cream, 1/4 cup water, corn syrup, and tea to boil in small saucepan, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; steep 5 minutes. Strain into another small saucepan; return to boil.

Remove from heat. Add coarsely chopped chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool glaze until thickened, but still pourable, about 30 minutes. Place rack with cake over baking sheet. Slowly pour glaze over cake to cover, using spatula if necessary to spread evenly. Chill until glaze is firm, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day. Place cake on platter and serve.

By Chuck Gittleman: http://www.chefsgonewild.com/

As the Florida Presidential primaries approach the Republican Party held there debate at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton on Thursday January 24, 2008. Before the Debate Governor Mitt Romney held a rally at Bogarts Bar and Grille with about 300 supporters gathering to hear where the Governor stood on the issues. It was really exciting to meet the Governor (possible next President) and cheer him on. The candidate signed autographs, posed for pictures, shook hands, and reinforced his commitment to the America people. He was accompanied by his wife Ann, and various family members.

Bogart's Bar & Grille Crispy Fried Chicken






By Chuck Gittleman:www.chefsgoingwild.blogspot.com

How about enjoying some of the best Fried Chicken while enjoying a first run movie in comfortable assigned seating. Just step up to the concession stands located upstairs at Bogarts Bar and Grille on the Premier level at Muvico Palace 20 in Boca Raton. Bogarts uses a Henny Penny pressure fryer the advantages of pressure frying are clear: controlled low pressure allows faster cooking at lower temperatures. This not only saves energy and shortening, but helps seal in the food’s moisture and natural juices for a healthier, better-tasting product. Henny Penny first introduced commercial pressure frying over forty years ago. A half chicken served with seasoned French fries and house made coleslaw. How about a half bottle of wine or a domestic or imported beer to go with your meal it’s all available at the concession stand for you to enjoy while watching your movie on the big screen. “Here’s dining with you kid”

Dinner & a Movie - Bogart's Bar & Grille

Every weekend we like to check out the new movie openings at the Premier movie theater, Located in the Premier Level at Muvico Palace 20, Boca Raton 3200 Airport Road, Boca Raton, FL 33431, home of restaurateur Burt Rapoport's Bogart's Bar & Grille.http://www.bogartsofboca.com/.

This past weekend was the opening of the Bucket List. We decided to give the movie a try, first stop, Bogart's Bar & Grille, (located upstairs at Muvico) definitely one of the coolest places around the Boca Raton area! Martini's, steak and popcorn, who could ask for more?

We like to get there a little before the movie starts grab a bite to eat, and one of their incredible martinis. The menu is fantastic, a little of everything, (you can find the menu on the websight)

If you're running behind, Bogart's & Muvico make things so easy for you; It is set up so you can bring your food and drink into the theater with you!

Wait until you see what is stocked at their concession stands...it is unbeleivable! Palm Beach Confections, Haagan Dazs ice cream, over 20 bottles of wine and champagnes. It will blow you away, and I guareentee, you will never want to see a movie any other place again!

You can call to reserve both movie tickets and dining reservations in the dining room at 561-395-4695, or just head upstairs and have a seat in the bistro.

Here is the latest review on the Bucket List:

Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman star as two terminally ill cancer patients who decide to break out of the hospital and live their last days to the fullest in director Rob Reiner's seriocomic road movie. Edward Cole (Nicholson) is a corporate billionaire who is currently sharing a hospital room with blue-collar mechanic Carter Chambers (Freeman). Though initially the pair seems to have nothing in common, conversation gradually reveals that both men have a long list of goals they wish to accomplish before they kick the bucket, and an unrealized desire to discover what kind of men they really are. But one can't accomplish such lofty objectives from the confines of a hospital bed, so now, in order to live their lives to the absolute fullest, Edward and Carter will have to make a break for it. With a checklist that includes playing the poker tables in Monte Carlo, consuming copious amounts of caviar, racing the fastest machines on four wheels, and much more, these two terminally ill men will do their best to fit a lifetime of experience into their last remaining days while forging an unlikely, but truly remarkable, friendship. ~

Bogart's Bar & Grille Review in "Simply The Best Magazine"





By Kenny Spahn


"Dinner and a Movie
now takes on a whole new meaning.
That is, at least, in Boca Raton, at Bogart’s Bar &
Grille. Bogart’s is the latest blockbuster from legendary
producer Burt Rapoport (Opus 5, Henry’s,
Max’s Grille, Mon Ami, et al.). The setting takes place at the
glamorous Premier Muvico Palace, where you can catch all
the Red Carpet entrances and after-party action at the lively
front Bistro. Or, choose the back Dining Room for a more
intimate experience. Either way, you’re in for a great show.
GM John Maddalena directs the action with seamless editing
(ever-cognizant of the pending movie start times). But the
real special effects take place behind the scenes, where
Executive Chef Chuck Gittleman and his backstage crew
deliver daily all-star performances.

"Previews"
Bogart’s eclectic menu features some favorite
celebrities from other Burt Rapoport productions (call it,
“The Best Of Burt”). The show begins with appropriatelydubbed
“Sharing Plates” ($7-$14), including Asian-inspired
Calamari and Wasabi Seared Tuna (from Opus 5) and
Mahogany Chicken Wings (Max’s Grille). Or if you prefer a
good Western, catch the Grilled Chicken Quesadilla, Baja
Fish Tacos, or Chili Con Queso. Prezzo’s signature thin-crust
Pizzas make a spectacular comeback at Bogart’s (try the
Whole Wheat Grilled Veggie, or luscious 4-cheese Chicken
Artichoke). But our favorite preview appears in the role of
the practically addicting Black Angus Sliders.

"Opening Act"
Several characters play duel roles as light dinners
and/or healthy lunches. Grilled Chicken, for instance,
shares the screen with mixed baby greens, goat cheese, pine
nuts, tomatoes, and crispy onions in a rousing rendition of
Balsamic Grilled Chicken Salad. Southwest Cobb, Greek, and
Thai Chicken are some other meal-worthy Salads ($6-$15).
Meanwhile, the 10-oz. Premier Sirloin Burger takes the lead
on the Sandwich set, co-starring the Mediterranean Chicken
Pita, Blackened Mahi, and Grilled Portobello sandwiches.

"Main Attraction"
Onion-Crusted Snapper repeatedly garners
a standing ovation, with its crispy onion crust adding a
subtly sweet note and textural component to the butter-soft
filet, all set atop a cloud of mashed potatoes, and teamed
with sautéed spinach and Madeira wine sauce (Bravo!).
Henry’s Old Fashioned Pot Roast and Max’s Radiatore (with
roasted chicken, broccoli, sundried tomatoes, balsamic
broth, goat cheese and pine nuts) are other sellouts, along
with Blue Cheese Crusted Filet Mignon, Maple-Ginger
Salmon, and the diet-conscious Boca Plate ($13-$28). The
night’s best performance, however, was an inspired guest
appearance (i.e., nightly special)—Chef Chuck’s amazing
Seared Scallops. The delicate bivalves appeared beautifully
bronzed and glazed in truffle-brown butter reduction, with
baby green beans and sultry caramelized onion-mashed potatoes
playing supporting roles. Brilliant! (Chef Chuck, this one’s a
winner, dude —sign it on to the regular cast!).

"Intermission"
With a title like “Bogart’s Bar and Grille,”
you better believe the ‘Bar’ delivers some killer cocktails. From
the well-scripted wine list, we particularly applaud an independent
feature, Burt’s Cuvee (Burt’s private label, now
appearing only at select Rapoport venues). Enjoy this full bodied,
meritage-like blend (primitivo, petite syrah, zinfandel, &
syrah), which sings bold dark berry notes, while delivering dramatic
lines of licorice, oak, and spice. (“Movie?—What
movie?”)

"The Finale"
Directing the Dessert production is the
award-winning Niko Jambetakis (my favorite pastry
chef). Anything that comes from Chef Niko is bound to
be awesome, but his homemade Blueberry Pie gets the
Academy Award. It’s made fresh from scratch, served still
warm, and topped with vanilla ice cream—just like
grandma used to make (if your grandma was a highly
skilled Greek pastry chef!). One sneak preview, and
you’ll forget about all about the Raisinettes and
Twizzlers!

Bogart’s Bar and Grille
Makes an all-star performance—
one you’ll want to see again and again!
Serving lunch and dinner daily (with or without a movie).
