YA YA’S COOKBOOK IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS! By Steve Cook

AY YAY: After what seemed like an eternity of waiting, perhaps because I was just so excited for this to happen, Ya Ya’s Cookbook opened in early June. This place in the Downtown Short Pump shopping center (11674 W. Broad St.) is one of the most unique dining spots you’ll find, carrying the Asian street food concept to new heights. Located in a former hibachi restaurant, Ya Ya’s utilizes the old hibachi tables in a very creative manner — I won’t give it away. Go find out for yourself. The food and drink are, as expected, fantastic, including some exceptionally fresh sushi. Try the duck dish. It’s unbelievable. Joe Kiatsuranon, his brother Sonny and his mom, Sue Palaart (of Mom’s Siam), along with the inimitable Frank Oley who heads up the fantastic bar, have a real winner on their hands. Ya Ya’s is bound to be an industry favorite with its late-night full kitchen service (Every night ‘til 2, with full menu until 1:30 a.m.).

Now is the time to save money on your new outdoor structures. Cooler weather improves productvity and savings are considerable!

Beverage manager and part-owner, Frank Oley, will be offering a fantastic bar program and while he will be mixing a variety of exotic cocktails, he admits, “My favorite cocktail is an Old Fashioned.” Why? Frank explains, “My biggest passion is bitters…reading about bitters, learning the history of bitters, making bitters. I’m known for my bitters. “The Oley Way,” by the way, will also be the name of his signature Old Fashioned at Ya Ya’s. It’s made with Templeton Rye and Frank’s favorite bitter, which he has named “Oley’s Original Bitters.” Frank modestly tells me, “My bitters are the best.”

BURGERS & BREWS Photos by Kim Frost Photography

Carytown Burger 200 Towne Center W Blvd.; (804) 447-9443; CarytownBurger.com

The Barnyard Brawl: The Barnyard Brawl is not for the faint of heart. This massive burger boasts a one-third pound lean chuckand-sirloin beef patty topped with bacon, a fried egg, chicken tenders, two slices of White American cheese and you can get it with the Works, pictured here, with mayo, mustard, pickles, onions, lettuce and tomato. Nothing cuts through this burger’s richness like the hop-forward Pocahoptas from Center of the Universe Brewing in Ashland, VA. This West Coast-style IPA features four different Pacific Northwest hops, and is dry-hopped for additional hop flavor and aroma.

Rock Bottom

11800 W Broad St. (Short Pump Town Center); (804) 237-1684; RockBottom.com

Fireman’s Burger: One of Rock Bottom’s signature menu items, the ¾ lb. Fireman’s Burger is 12 ounces of juicy ground beef topped with pepper jack cheese, fresh sliced avocado, red onion, lettuce and for the fiery finish — pickled jalapenos, house-made red chile sauce and chipotle mayo. Be sure to ask for a side of pub sauce to dip your golden brown fries in. This burger pairs perfectly with Rock Bottom’s Fire Chief Ale — a beer brewed annually in support of local firefighters. The 2017 batch of Fire Chief was a traditional, dark copper-red English ESB. A toasty caramel malt profile is offset by an assertive hop bitterness.

Keagan’s Irish Pub & Restaurant

2251 Old Brick Rd. (West Broad Village); (804) 360-9240; KeagansRichmond.com

Centerville Family Practice

The Keagan’s Burger: The Keagan’s Burger boasts a halfpound of fresh ground beef, crispy bacon and cheddarjack cheese, with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles on a toasted Kaiser roll. Plus you get your choice of wedges or hand-cut fries. Be sure to check out this traditional Irish pub for their great weekday lunch special: All burgers and sandwiches (including sides) are just $7 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. You’ll probably want to complement this amazing burger with an equally amazing brew. Let your personal taste determine your choice. This is an Irish Pub, after all. Keagan’s offers more than 25 drafts on tap, so you’re sure to find one that’s just right for you.

4024 Cox Rd.; (804) 780-2537; CapitalAleHouse.com

Ring of Fire Burger: Love is a burning thing, and so is the Ring of Fire Burger from Capital Ale House: a Chili & habañero rubbed Virginia-raised beef patty, grilled pineapple, bacon, pepper jack cheese, ancho-chipotle sauce and fresh jalapeños. With over 100 beers on at their Innsbrook location, how do you know which to pick? We’ve done the work for you here. Nothing pairs better with hot-and-spicy than the refreshing citrus of Iron Leaf Belgian Blonde, a Belgian Single brewed with lemongrass and lemon peel, from Pale Fire out of Harrisonburg, VA. Capital Ale’s Burger Night special runs until 1 a.m. on Monday nights, and features $3 burgers with any beverage purchase.

RECIPE

EASY APPLE CRISP RECIPE FOR FALL

INGREDIENTS 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup old-fashioned oats 1 cup dark brown sugar ½ cup chopped almonds 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened and cut into pieces 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise 6 medium-sized Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and very thinly sliced 1/3 cup dark brown sugar 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 tbsp. bourbon

PREPARATION

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease an 8x8 baking pan. To make the topping: Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar and almonds in a large bowl until well-combined. Add in the pieces of butter and use your hands to squeeze and combine until the mixture becomes crumbly and resembles wet sand. (Alternatively, you can cut in the butter with a pastry cutter, or place all of the topping ingredients in a food processor and pulse until just blended. My favorite method is to use my hands, as I believe you get the best crumbly topping that way.) Once finished, place topping in the fridge and begin making the apple filling. To make the filling: Place butter and seeds from the vanilla bean in a medium saucepan, and turn heat on medium. After a couple of minutes the butter will begin to crackle and foam—make sure you whisk consistently during this process! Another minute or two, and you will notice the butter turning a slight brown (caramel) color on the bottom of the saucepan; continue to whisk and remove from heat as soon as the butter begins to give off a nutty aroma. Immediately transfer the butter to a bowl to prevent it from burning. Set aside to cool for a few minutes. While the butter is cooling, place apples, 1/3 cup brown sugar, cinnamon and bourbon in a large bowl and toss to combine. Add the brown butter to this apple mixture and toss again to combine. Take a heaping ½ cup of the topping mixture and toss with the apple mixture. Place the apple mixture in prepared pan and sprinkle evenly with topping. It may seem like a lot of topping, but the apples will cook down and the topping will provide an excellent crunchy exterior. Bake the crisp on a baking sheet (just in case the filling bubbles over!) for 55-60 minutes, or until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbling. Remove from oven and cool 10 minutes on wire rack. Serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream. Try using different nuts instead of almonds, and try it with a drizzle of caramel on top!
