Memphis Fine Dining

Erling Jensen-The Restaurant
1044 South Yates • Memphis, TN 38119 • 901.763.3700
Chef Erling Jensen made a name for himself at the popular La Tourelle and has now ventured out on his own at this eponymously named restaurant located in a converted suburban home just off Poplar Avenue near the Ridgeway Inn. Understated elegance and contemporary art set the tone for Jensen's innovative cuisine. Well grounded in the French kitchen, Jensen brings a somewhat traditional flavor to his menu.

Melange
948 South Cooper • Memphis, TN 38104 • 901.276.0002
A menu as exciting as the atmosphere awaits at this hip but elegant restaurant and tapas bar. In the few years since it opened, Melange has become the toast of the town. Start with sautéed frog legs with roasted garlic, basil, and fresh tomato, and then move on to flash-fried gourmet greens splashed with vinaigrette and sprinkled with orange-yellow nasturtiums.

Entrees include an excellent escolar, a firm, white fish filet caramelized with a butter-wine sauce; and fork-tender honey-glazed pork tenderloins served with a sweet potato latke and ginger reduction. This is no place to skimp on dessert. Go for the Madagascar chocolate mousse timbale, or the warm blueberry tartlet with house-made frozen vanilla custard.

Chez Philippe
149 Union Avenue • Memphis, TN 38103 • 901.529.4188
An opulent floral arrangement is the first thing you'll see as you step through the wrought-iron gates into this lavishly elegant restaurant in the Peabody hotel. The dining rooms are on three separate levels, with lacy New Orleans-style metalwork, wide marble columns, and sparkling chandeliers that give Chez Philippe a palatial atmosphere.

You'll find such dishes as salmon tournedos with mango chutney and fried dill pickle, grilled beef tenderloin dressed in sorghum molasses and green herbs, and smoked pork tenderloin brushed with Jack Daniel's mustard on grits couscous. Prices are steep, but expect to be pampered.
