JG Domestic dish details

The pork-loving Jose Garces has released a handful of menu details for his JG Domestic, opening in the next week or so in the Cira Centre (2929 Arch St.). As you might be able to tell by the name, the restaurant will serve as Garces' homage to American farmers, growers and producers. We'll have more soon for sure, but for now, whet your curious appetite with some details off Garces' and chef de cuisine Dave Conn's menu after the jump. - Heirloom Crimson Popcorn with cheddar and horseradish: red popcorn kernels from California's Rancho Gordo, seasoned with sea salt, Jasper Hill Vermont cheddar cheese and fresh horseradish - Farm 51 Autumn Shirred Egg: eggs from a nearby urban farm in West Philadelphia with truffle-celery root cream, Benton's bacon, Washington State lobster mushrooms and Oregon black truffle - Strube Wagyu Skirt Steak: 100 percent wagyu lineage beef from Strube Ranch in Pittsburg, Texas, served with cider-glazed cipollini onions, fried shishito peppers, cider veal jus and Bayley Hazen blue cheese - Patterson Farms' maple syrup souffle with crème anglaise and Nocello ice cream - Atlantic Big Eye tuna: caught off the coast of Massachusetts, with California baby artichokes, Lola Rosa lettuce, marinated kumquats and creamy mustard vinaigrette - "Whole Animal": one dish crafted by using a farm-raised animal in its entirety, such as roasted suckling Pennsylvania lamb, roasted leg and shoulder, crispy confit ribs and braised belly Other quick details ... - The menu will range in price from $5 to $28. - There'll be a five-course chef's tasting menu available for $65 that'll include cheese cart service. - Twenty beers available (14 bottles, six drafts), plus 17 wines by the glass and 60 by the bottle. - JG Domestic cocktails ($12-$15) will include The Texas Eagle (a light take on the Bloody Mary); The City of New Orleans, a Sazerac; and The Hiawatha, a bourbon-based drink with allspice and pumpkin butter. (Since the restaurant's in the Cira, all the drinks are named after historic American railroad lines.)
