- Carefully assembled to provide the perfect ratio of grated cheese to dressing per bite, the cherry tomato salad from Room Four (4907 N. College Ave., 317-925-7529).
- The shrimp and grits appetizer at Matt the Miller’s Tavern (11 W. City Center Dr., Carmel, 317-805-1860), in which a creamy Cajun sauce unites fat shrimp, cubes of tasso, and peppers sauteed to submission over a platform of cheesy grit cakes. The dish could hold its own as an entree, which would save everybody the anguish of politely resisting the last creamy bite.
