Landon:
The most memorable dish of my life? Years ago I met a friend at a neighborhood bistro in Paris. I ordered "cassoulet". It was transcendent, a warm sweater of a memory!
I searched out cassoulet around the world for a decade, fruitlessly trying to re-create the memory. Finally I tasted the cassoulet that my friend Tony prepared. I was magically transported back ten years!
We have spent months (and dozens of duck legs) perfecting our Cassoulet recipe. We hope you enjoy it.
Menu detail

(May be substituted based on what's available at the Farmers Market)
Classic Cassoulet
Entree
The star of the show:
A traditional bean potage made with home confited Liberty Farm duck legs, Rancho Llano Seco pasture raised pork, and Fatted Calf Toulouse sausages, served with crusty bread.
Celeriac Remoulade
Small Plate
A Parisian winter bistro staple: a salad of celery root tossed in home made mustard aioli. The perfect foil to the rich cassoulet.
“Tea & Biscuits”
Dessert
Home made Earl Grey tea sorbet flavored with bergamot oil and served with black pepper and orange & ginger shortbread biscuits.
Wine Choice
Beverage
We've carefully chosen special wines to complement our meal. (available for purchase)
White: Domitia 2015. Picpoul de Pinet, an unusual grape from Languedoc, the region of Cassoulet. This grape is described as "achingly cool" amongst NY sommeliers. "Aromas of lemon, lime, white grapefruit, and minerals". Crisp and acidic; a nice counterpoint to rich Cassoulet.
Red: Châteaux La Temperance 2004, Haut Medoc, close to St Estephe. A chance to taste an aged Bordeaux. "Hearty and round with oodles of dark, earthy fruit, no hard edges and soft complexity."
Add-ons
