July Featured Dish

June 26th, 2008 by Mark Bodenstein

Pickling spice rubbed hake, cucumber noodles, jam-berry relish, cilantro mustard.
This particular dish takes me back to my child hood eating fresh cucumber salads that my grandmother made with fresh cilantro, sugar, ver-jus blanc, and spices. I have taken that idea made noodles with the cucumber for a refreshing light take on pasta, rubbed the fish in the spices from my grand mother, and finished the dish with cilantro mustard to create a small sauce on the plate, to round the dish off with some spicy element I did jam berry relish with green chilies. This dish is light, hot, cold and refreshing with the hot weather. The dish will pair perfect with the White Knight Viognier.



July Featured Wines

June 26th, 2008 by Mark Bodenstein

Pinot Evil Pinot Noir: $5 glass - $20 bottle
This is a lovely ripe cherry nose, with hints of berry, smoke and rose. This is a medium bodied wine that is great for summer. It has a smooth velvet finish great with bass, lamb, or short ribs.

White Knight Viognier:$5 glass - $20 bottle
This crisp white wine with the nose of tulips, melon, grapefruit and ripe grapes. This is a slightly acidic wine that is a great substitute for chardonnay. Another great summer wine pairs will with hake, seviche, and rabbit.

Beer Special: Samuel Smith’s Pale Ale

May 29th, 2008 by Mark Bodenstein

We are featuring Samuel Smith’s Pale Ale one pint bottles for $6.

This is an herbal hop aroma beer fermentted in slate squares with notes of vanilla, butterscotch and caramel.

Not like your typical pale ale, this one is a bit less hoppy and bitter.
