FROM THE OWNERS
🏅🔥 The 2024 Summer Olympic Games are upon us, and Chef David is going for the gold this weekend with another delicious fresh fish special. Are you an Olympics watcher? What is your favorite event? While Paris hosts the games this year, we Italians harbor no grudges—after all, it’s all about global camaraderie. 🌍 Fun fact: In every edition of the games, the Olympic torch ignites in Greece and journeys to the host country. We’re cool if it bypasses us, though; in the restaurant industry, we know it's hard to extinguish a Greece fire. 🥁
This weekend, we’re rallying behind Team USA with our Grilled American Snapper and savoring the late summer vibes with a robust vegetable puree crafted from roasted fennel bulbs, red bell peppers, red onions, and garlic. Trust me, I practically wanted to swim in that veggie goodness when I tasted it. Paired with polenta and the flaky, mild snapper’s char, it’s the perfect bite of summer freshness. For a harmonious match, sip a crisp Pinot Grigio or Chablis that won’t overpower the subtle flavors.
After this delightful meal, feel free to take a victory lap - though not mandatory - as our special is light, delectable, and leaves plenty of room for our Peach Cobbler Ice Cream. But hurry—this weekend is your last chance! Next Thursday, we unveil our August dessert of the month. 🍑🍦
In other news, our resident monarch caterpillar formed its chrysalis this week, and we are so excited to watch the development. Here is a picture, and we will keep you posted on the progress! 🦋
Also, next Wednesday, July 31st we will be hosting a Foodies of Lafayette Celebration Event in honor of our 2024 Culinary Excellence Award. There are only 15 tickets left so if you're interested in joining us, call today to secure your spot! It's only $25 per ticket (which includes food, non-alcoholic beverage, tax and gratuity), and we'll be serving an array of small bites passed around the Blu Room as guests enjoy each other's company. A cash bar will also be available.
Much like the Olympics, we have a variety of events and experiences for you to enjoy this week. Whether you’re indulging in our Grilled American Snapper, savoring the sounds of jazz, celebrating our culinary feats at the Foodies of Lafayette Celebration Event on Wednesday, or checking on our little butterfly-in-the-making, there’s something for everyone. Whatever your preference, we'll be waiting for you! 🌟🍽️
…”Greece” fire….clever.😄
