...Maine crab and crème fraîche. The omelettes are simply good, not fabulous, and contain neither enough of the promising ingredients from which they are made nor even enough salt and pepper to give them an appropriate kick. The poached eggs over spicy tomato and chorizo ragout blend too easily into the ragout, which tastes and looks like little more than a red sauce with sausage and lots of onion. The selection is helped by toast points which do well at absorbing just enough but not too much sauce, but even at that, one might as well...

Main courses were slightly less successful. Pan-roasted monkfish ($17.95) was cooked perfectly, the optimal blend of a crisp exterior with a moist inside. However, its pairing with large cubes of chorizo was heavy-handed and the spicy sausage overwhelmed the delicate flavor of the fish. Seared duck breast ($16.95) was distinctly disappointing.

Instead I had seared Ecuadoran shrimp and braised lentils, followed by grilled ahi tuna on a bed of chorizo piperade and honey-pepper sauce. Both dishes were excellent. My companion began with scallops and figs and followed with a perfectly seared cut of roast venison...

...record, then, the Bush-Fox menu is a strongly crossover affair: Maryland crab and chorizo pozole served with summer vegetables, pumpkin seed-crusted bison with poblano whipped potato, fava bean and chanterelle ragout and apple chipotle sauce, salads of gold and red tomatoes and greens, followed by mango and coconut ice cream dome, peaches, raspberries, red chili pepper sauce and tequila sabayon. Hey, who needs Tex-Mex when you're eating chili pepper sauce with the ice cream...
