Saturday night was our opening of rifle deer season traditional meal.
Beef tenderloin steaks, cut 2 fingers thick, rubbed & chargrilled till just medium rare. Served with sautéed onions & cremini mushrooms & a garlic, cream & aged cheddar potato & sweet potato bake. Glass or 2 of good Cabernet & a Bookers to finish, around the fireplace.
Sunday night was a double recipe of potato & bacon soup, with fresh multigrain buns, a glass of Sonoma County Chardonnay or good Pinot Noir. Finished with couple of fingers of Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye.
Good times with family & great friends !
No deer were harmed in the making of this memory.
Oh now, Stop! Excellent menus, 99, and double down on the Bookers! However, I would probably sub your second menu wine selection with a crispy Vernaccia di San Gimignano.
Just can't get that place out of my mind.
LD, know what you mean. We spent 2 weeks touring Tuscany in 2001, including the little walled village of SG. Have a beautiful print of the village, from below the wall hanging in our living room. Would go back in a heart beat !
