‘MasterChef’ winner Kelsey Murphy shows restaurant menu
By Lauren Kent
Indianapolis, Indiana — Kelsey Murphy is “MasterChef: Legends” winner, owner of Murphy’s restaurant.
Murphy’s restaurant, Inspo, opens March 28 in the Fishers Test Kitchen.
“Inspo is all about things that have inspired me along the way. Things I grew up eating. Things that I’ve eaten in my travels,” she said.
According to Murphy, the dishes will be familiar and approachable, but with a chef-elevated twist that’s unexpected to kick it up a notch.
“It’s all going to be things that look on the menu like, ‘Oh yeah, I know that,’” she said. “And then you taste it and you’re like, ‘What is that?’”
A few of the menu items:
• Lobster roll with pickled mustard seeds and potato chips
• Asian sticky wings with a Korean BBQ flavor
• Ancient grain bowl with avocado, caramelized onions, pickled onions, sweet potatoes, tahini and miso dressing, and more
There will be a daily, rotating warm cookie option. You’ll have to get them while they’re hot, no pun intended, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.
“This is my homage to where I started. I was the cookie person — at work … with my family. That’s kind of like my soul, my bread and butter.”
The restaurant will have a casual atmosphere, and according to Murphy, the food will be offered at affordable prices.
