"If you followed Pascuzzi’s journey on this season of Top Chef, then you might recall that he served the judges a trio of oysters in the farm fruit challenge. Although the dish seemed simplistic at face value, the chef wowed the judges with distinct and meticulously crafted flavor profiles, plus attention to detail. And in a similar vein, while sandwiches might sound a bit basic when we’re talking Top Chef-caliber chefs, Pascuzzi’s Stacked proudly makes everything “between the bread.” The Oxtail French Dip started it all: Under a blanket of melted havarti, charred onions and mushrooms are piled onto oxtail that’s been cooked for 48 hours. Finished with a touch of garlic horseradish sauce and served with a rosemary jus, there’s nothing basic about it. The fast-casual shop is open for takeout and patio dining." - Janey Wong
