Carriage House's menu full of Southern-inspiration

Chef Mark Steuer at the Bedford
Carriage House, the upcoming project from chef Mark Steuer, is still aiming for a September 1 opening. But do you really want to wait that long to see what's on the menu? That's what we thought. So we've put a draft (no promises) of the (punctuationless) menu, full of traditional—and some not-so-traditional—Southern-inspired dishes, after the jump.
