Riddles Penultimate: Magical Garlic Potatoes Andy Ayers' ever changing daily menu at Riddles Penultimate complemented a standard menu, which was led by three of the restaurant's specialties – Chicken Major Grey, Chicken Rosé and Shrimp Sara. Ayers' garlic potatoes was another signature dish. When Ayers published the recipe for his potatoes in the restaurant's newsletter, he introduced it by saying, "Although people ask for them all summer, I think this super-rich side dish is most enjoyable during the bitter part of the year. . . . I won't make them for you at the wrong time of year, but you're welcome to make them for yourself."
