A lot has changed at The Black Hoof over the past year—most notably the unexpected departure of co-founder Grant van Gameren. But sitting in the rustic dining room, as packed as ever with culinary thrill seekers—the kind who salivate in anticipation of braised lamb’s brain or raw cow’s heart—it’s hard to register the change. The beef tongue on brioche toast is the Platonic ideal of a deli sandwich. The meat is well seasoned and tender, and the accompanying tarragon mayo, Brive purple mustard and pickled celery add sweet, tart and tangy counterpoints to the salty tongue. The carrot cake topped with seared foie gras sounds disgusting, but the succulent, buttery liver pairs so well with the dense, just-sweet-enough cake that it’s impossible to stop eating. Mains $8–$24.
