St. Elmo shrimp cocktail · Indianapolis
The most famous appetizer in Indianapolis, a chilled jumbo-shrimp cocktail set in St. Elmo Steak House's house horseradish sauce so fierce it brings the eyes to water from across the dining room.
St. Elmo Steak House has served the cocktail since the early 1900s in its 127 South Illinois Street dining room. The kitchen grinds the horseradish daily; commercial prepared horseradish is not used. National food writers have called it one of the most-imitated appetizers in American steakhouse cooking, and St. Elmo bottles the sauce for retail through its online store.
