detlef Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 It's truffle season and I've developed a bit of a following among the more adventurous diners as somebody who cooks with organ meats and other lesser used cuts. So decided to put the two together in a meal and see if anybody wanted to sign up. The response was surprisingly good. Here it is... Stinky and Offal Wednesday, January 31, 2007 Jujube Restaurant Truffled duck liver pate with black rice “toast” and a salad of endive and duck giblet confit -Rogue Imperial Pilsner Seared large sea scallops, sweetbreads, and foie gras with truffle and lemon -Chateau Musar Blanc 1998 Star-anise poached beef tongue with carrot-scallion won ton and black truffle -Chateau Beau Site St. Estephe 2001 Braised tripe with Chinese bacon and truffled red rice jook -Ska Brewing Co. Decadent IPA Truffled chocolate truffles with assorted stinky cheese -A splash of Cappellano Barolo Chinato Optional beverage pairings $25 for the flight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiley Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Things like this depress me. I could never find a unique menu like this in St. Louis unless I'm just not looking in the right places. Great menu Detlef. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MojoMan Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 detlef, I'm definitely not a fan of organ meats but I respect your cojones. I'm glad the turnout will be good and I'm sure the food will be too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detlef Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 It went really well. I think the favorite course of the table was the scallop/sweetbread/foie course. On another topic, I made a verbal agreement to terms currently being drawn up by attorney to purchase another restaurant space yesterday. It's pretty much turn key and in one month... Taco Bar It's gonna rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
