Favorites: The Roosevelt’s mussels

Even now, I’m nearly at a loss for words seeing so many delicious mussels on this plate, piled high above a Virginia apple cider broth. The broth adds layers of flavor to a pile of mussels that are slightly sweet and meaty on their own. These bivalves are on the appetizer list ($10), but the addition of spicy Sausage Craft chorizo and grilled bread means I could almost make a meal of it.
