Blatt Beer & Table has an obsession with mac 'n cheese. Diners can get some in bite form as an appetizer, order some as a side dish, score some for the kids, or choose from several "adult" versions. Check out the Truffle Mac with bacon, peas, and truffle oil, or the Buffalo Blue Mac with fried chicken, Sriracha buffalo sauce, and blue cheese. For the serious mac and cheese enthusiast, the Manhandler Mac is stuffed with smoked pulled pork and kielbasa, barbecue sauce, onion, pickles, paprika and chives.

In the Habanero Bacon Mac, the bacon is almost undetectable to the naked eye (besides, it's pretty dark in there), but you'll definitely taste it. A kick of heat from habanero peppers plus a sprinkle of green onions and crispy breadcrumbs takes this penne-based mac over the top.
