Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Pasta ($24)
Chef John Clickner has only been on the job at Federal Taphouse for a few weeks, but he’s already spicing things up for Restaurant Week. “We’re working on a new menu coming out in the next couple of weeks and then a bigger change in August for the fall.”
The former chef at Gigi’s Southern Table, John brings many years of experience to the downtown restaurant, where he’s already vibing with the staff. “The people are fantastic,” he said.
The special for Restaurant Week is a Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Pasta, a cream sauce on cavatappi pasta with bold flavors coming from the shrimp and sausage. “This is going to be one of the new items on the summer menu,” said John.
