opprairie.com Dining Out the orland park prairie | March 30, 2017 | 25 The Dish Crab is king with a kick at Orland’s Q Restaurant Asian fusion spot gives sneak sip of summer cocktail Bill Jones, Editor Q Restaurant’s popular spicy king crab legs ($26) are listed on the appetizers menu but work just as well as an entrée, according to owner Quee Huynh. The sauce includes ginger, basil and tomato, as well as Thai chili and jalapeño peppers. Photos by Brittany Kapa/22nd Century Media Q Restaurant 11379 W. 159th St. in Orland Park Hours • 11 a.m.-9:30 p.m. Monday-Thursday • 11 a.m.-10:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday • Noon-9 p.m. Sunday For more information ... Web: www. qrestaurantorland.com Phone: (708) 966-2179 While innovation is generally the name of the game for Q Restaurant owner Quee Huynh, one of the dishes she enjoys the most has been hiding out on the appetizers portion of the Orland Park Asian fusion spot’s menu for the past two years. “I put [it] on the appetizer side because it’s meant to share, but you can always have it as an entrée,” Huynh said. The spicy king crab legs ($26) feature ginger, basil and tomato. And the heat comes from a combination of Thai chili and jalapeño peppers fried together. But the sauce only really works — cheesy as it may sound — if happiness serves as the key ingredient. “When I cook this sauce, I have to be happy or I [mess] it up,” Huynh said. “I like to be happy — just me and my sauce together.” And despite the “spicy” moniker, the shellfish is actually rather mild, at least when compared to its Singaporean counterparts: chili crab and black pepper crab. “I do tone the spicy level down a bit,” Huynh said. That is not the only adjustment Huynh said she made to accommodate her American customers. While she often asks to see pictures of her friends’ travels around the world to get ideas, she also recognizes important cultural differences between Asians and Americans. “We like to make our hands dirty and dig in,” the Vietnamese chef said. Those in the United States — especially those going out for fine dining on the weekends? Not so much. So, she decided to slit the crab legs to make the meat easier for her diners to pull. And it had the positive side effect of letting the sauce get directly to the tender insides of the crab. “I’m always so proud of this dish, because I’m so happy with how it tastes,” Huynh said. “It does have that warming from the ginger but also a little kick. Seafood, you need the ginger and the heat.” When it comes to the The honey lavender cocktail ($10) at Q Restaurant features Figenza — a Mediterranean fig-flavored vodka — and Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey whiskey, with a dash of lavender bitters. unique sauce, Huynh said she knew she wanted to do something to separate it from what she was seeing everywhere else, in terms of seafood. “I’m not just going to make butter and you dip it,” she said. “I’m going to make something different.” Huynh said her regular customers — who she calls “family” — have emboldened her in the kitchen to simply try things and see where they lead. “Our customers here are really easy,” she said. “We make it; they love it. “I know what good food tastes like. ... I know what people like. So, I trust it.” Coming this summer: lychee rose Bill Jones, Editor Q Restaurant in Orland Park recently gave 22nd Century Media a sneak peek of one of the new cocktails expected to hit its menu this summer: the lychee rose ($9). A lychee is a tropical fruit popular in Southeast Asia. But Q owner Quee Huynh said the taste is so light that drinks branded as “lychee” rarely taste like the real deal. She instead tried to do an impression of the soapberry Speaking of sauce When Quee Huynh is not looking to other countries for inspiration, her eyes turn toward the West Coast, where she said she finds plenty to love in California’s trendy atmosphere. “I’m always very trendy,” she said. “I’m looking for new things all the time.” For one of her favorite cocktails of the moment, she said she actually was inspired by an ice cream flavor popular in California, combined with her love for a Brittany Kapa/22nd Century Media by mixing peach vodka and X-Rated Fusion Liqueur — a mix of French vodka and blood orange, with mango and passion fruit. But the real trick — what gives the drink its light-and-fresh lychee vibe — is the rose water she mixes with the alcohol. She said she finds the right ingredients, from strange bitters to the perfect floral arrangements for her tables, by getting out and looking for them herself. “I love to go to the grocery store,” she said. “That is like my mall.” new vodka called Figenza — a Mediterranean fig-flavored vodka. The honey lavender cocktail ($10) — an item not officially listed on the menu but among Huynh’s “secret” offerings — mixes Figenza with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey whiskey and lavender bitters. “That’s all they need to know,” Huynh said of the ingredients, noting the bitters are really what make it special. “Bitters is just a bonus to a drink.”
