Famous for
Deep-fried Dessert, Pennsylvania
Funnel Cake
Recommended by Jonathan Gold and 8 other food critics.
"But the funnel cake, which looks like a pizza-size Iranian jalebi, is actually crisp and delicious, scattered with strawberries, shaved fennel and what look like baby beet leaves hiding delicate, airy puffs of foie gras mousse. I'm not fond of the concept of decadence when it comes to food, but this is real end of empire stuff, the brunch of time's demise."

"What might be one of our favorite dishes of the year (although tasted after we already named our top 10), this funnel cake topped with dollops of silky foie gras mousse, balsamic strawberries and greens, is fun and unique."

"After seeing one of a kind pieces at the new Broad Museum in downtown Los Angeles, there's only one thing that can top it - foie gras funnel cake!"

"Who would've thought foie gras on a funnel cake could taste so good. The idea was pretty innovative. The funnel cake with the balsamic was sweet and the fennel gave the dish some freshness and acidity. I appreciated the creamy foie gras, which was enough for each bite with the funnel cake."

"Dollops of foie gras mousse sit perfectly on top of a crunchy funnel cake, sprinkled with fresh strawberries and some other leafy things. Chef Timothy Hollingsworth (chef/co-owner of Barrel & Ashes) created this surprisingly tasty (and verrry rich) hybrid dish that you should probably try."

"Though on paper, the sound of the dish should surely evoke images of the all-fried-everything caloric madness at the county fair. Yet in the hands of a chef as skilled as Hollingsworth, what is presented is a masterpiece wherein the funnel cake is a canvas for the vibrancy and decadence of foie gras mousse, strawberries, shaved fennel, and balsamic reduction."

"The most talked about dish here is the Foie Gras Funnel Cake, a high/low amalgamation where a French delicacy meets a deep fried carnival treat and together make sweet, sweet love."

"My favorite thing to order is the funnel cake with fresh strawberries and foie gras mousse. It is the best thing on the menu so far."
