Mr Rain's Fun House, Chef Bill Buszinski in the American Visionary Art Museum - Key Highway in Federal Hill - Closed

[1000yregg]

Went to Mr. Rain's Fun House, a new restaurant that opened late 2009 on top the the American Visionary Art Museum.
They had a special La Grande Boucherie happy hour in celebration of mardi gras- $15 for several pork courses. It was ok.
We started with head cheese served with bread and some honey mustard (?).
Course 2 was some hunter sausage- a tad dry- possibly the meat was ground a bit too fine.
Third was some pulled pork off a whole pig they roasted. Sadly a but dry as well, but he skin as nicely seasoned.
Last was Tasso ham- it was a alright as well, but I still do not understand honey mustard.
What was nice was a flight of American whiskeys- my favorite was the Rittenhouse rye.

Not sure about the restaurant, but might head back to try their regular menu at least once.

You favored a Pennsylvania-style rye in Baltimore? Sacrilege!

Thanks, JDawg.

Interesting bit of trivia: If you read Richard Gorelick's article, he mentions that before Mr. Rain's Fun House opened in 2009, that space was occupied by the Joy America Cafe whose chef was none other than Spike Gjerde.
