Continuing our theme of French Classics reinvented, we invite you to try our Boeuf Bourguignon Feast!.
Like Cassoulet, Boeuf Bourguignon is a French peasant dish that has been refined into haute cuisine. The first "modern" recipe was by Escoffier in 1903. Julia Child gushed that Boeuf Bourginon was "One of the most delicious beef dishes concocted by man!"
We tried many variations and cuts of meat to bring you this refined dish, along with some delicious accompaniments.
Enjoy!

Wine Choices
Beverage
We've carefully chosen special wines to complement our meal. (available for purchase)
White: Chateau Petit Roubié 2016. Picpoul de Pinet, an unusual grape from Languedoc. Grown organically. This grape is described as "achingly cool" amongst NY sommeliers. "Aromas of flowers with the scent of white peach. Nicely balanced". A nice counterpoint to rich French stews.
Red: Châteaux Malescasse, 2008, Haut Medoc. Has the smooth round tannins of an aged Bordeaux. "Rich aromas of mocha, cocoa beans and truffles followed by ripe red and black berries."
