Restaurant guide

To all Northside Bistro supporters. I Must inform you that Northside Bistro in Downtown District, Iowa City is now closed. Being part of this community and having an opportunities to meet and work with Iowa farmers is blessing. I am hoping the community continues to support Iowa farmers and small businesses for years to come. Cheers! Andy Diep

The process in reverse first we render lobes of foie gras on very low heat until the liver has completely rendered out then we whip into freshly made unsalted butter and season with honey and thick grain Maldon salt. Once we have this liver butter we reserve some for garnish and the rest gets ground so that we can combine into our biscuit dough . . #theoriginalfoiebiscuits #northsidebistro #newyearseve #prixfixe #only #stayuniqueiowacity
