Al Martinez is Executive Sous Chef for Levy Restaurants, the CWS caterer via MECA. He created many wonderful dishes for us to sample-each one a home run.
My favorites were the 18 inch “Strike Zone” calzone and the porkbelly slider. Some items were named after parts of Omaha like the South O 7 Layer Dip and the 10th Street Tostada.
Other tasty offerings include: Grilled Street Dawg, Cuban Dawg, Double Play Burger, Southwest Turkey Burger, First Base Fried Pork Fritter Sandwich, Hand Carved Reuben Sandwich, Smothered Country Fries, and Batter’s Box Nachos.
On the lighter side, the Mediterranean Chicken Wrap was light, satisfying and refreshing on a hot summer’s day.
On the sweet side you can enjoy Berrie Kabobs, cheesecake on a stick and a slice of giant rainbow cake
Whatever the dish, College World Series fans will not just be cheering the teams but Al Martinez and his creations as well.
