Apsara opening in Blue Ash

I've heard that Apsara, Chanaka Delanerolle's new Asian restaurant in Blue Ash, is opening Friday.
Apsara are sacred dancers at a Buddhist temple, and the word is blessed. Delanerolle owns Teak, Mount Adams Fish House and Celestial Steakhouse, so you just know there will be fish -- good fish, and of course, sushi. I got a menu. It's six pages long, excluding sushi: As we previously reported, it's a Thai restaurant with some extras.
Appetizers ($4-$10) range from the requisite: spring rolls, chicken wings and satay to the unusual: frogs' legs and lumpias. There are curries ($10-$19) of every color with proteins to pick from ($1-$4 extra), plus stir-fry dishes ($13, plus extra for proteins), and plenty of inventive entrees:

Lemon Grass Glazed Ahi Tuna $32
Grilled Ahi Tuna served with sautéed
sweet chili basil, Napa cabbage and coconut jasmine rice
Broiled Half Rack of
Lamb $26
Marinated in a sweet and savory sauce over Asian slaw and finished
with a tamarind peanut sauce
Crispy Duck $19
Served with an
assortment of vegetables and finished with basil sauce

The restaurant is in the old the Watson Bros building, which was before my time in Cincinnati. I have seen some of the interior pieces -- intricate carvings of the Buddhist dancers. They're quite impressive.
The drinks menu looks pretty interesting, too. The signature martini is ($10) is made with jack fruit, a mulberry relative that's native to Delanerolle's native Sri Lanka. The jack fruit is mixed with peach and raspberry shaken with Stoli Elite vodka. There are also plenty of cocktails with lychee, ginger and Asian pear.
Polly wrote more about it back in March.

Hours: I'm waiting for a call back from the restaurant. They didn't send them when they sent the menu. I'll update when I get it.
