TOMATOES ARE RIPE & TASTING DELICIOUS | NOW ON CARPE VINO’S NEW “TO-GO” MENU
GRILLED STONE FRUIT & HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALAD
Chevre Tomme, Kalamata Olive, Pickled Onion, Tomato Leaf Coulis
In Case You Missed It…
We wish we could just hit DELETE to the start of 2020 and rewrite the first 6 months of the year, but that just isn’t possible. Best we can do is look at JULY 4th as a “reset” date and start moving forward, understanding that the “new norm” is reality and here to stay (for a while at least). We’ve tried looking through the crystal ball, even given the ole “Magic 8-Ball” a couple shakes, but the answer keeps coming back “cannot predict now” or “concentrate and ask again.” That’s exactly what we’re going to do, not try and predict and concentrate on the formula that has been working thus far…”to-go” dining service.
Evaluating our past four months, we are now going to be open for “To-Go” dining service (curbside or Higgins drop-off) Wednesday-Saturday (until further notice). Today, Chef Time Dube is releasing a NEW MENU, featuring seasonal ingredients that will continually evolve each week. New items include:
GRILLED STONE FRUIT & HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALAD
Chevre Tomme, Kalamata Olive, Pickled Onion, Tomato Leaf Coulis
SWEET STREET CORN AGNOLOTTI (AVAILABLE AS HALF OR FULL ORDER)
Cotija Cheese, Tajin, Cilantro
CHILLED CORN SOUP (AVAILABLE IN PINT OR QUART)
Extra Virgin Basil Oil, Cherry Tomato
SHRIMP COBB SALAD
Southern Pickled Shrimp, Sieved Egg, Tasso Ham, Corn, Cherry Tomato, Cucumber
PAN ROASTED SKUNA BAY SALMON
Parisian Gnocchi, Black Garlic, Warm Sherry Vinaigrette, Cherry Tomato, Arugula
MISHIMA WAGYU SIRLOIN
Huitlacoche, Maitake Mushroom, Tomalito, Cherry Tomato
STRAWBERRIES ROMANOFF
Shortbread, Whipped Crème Fraiche, Grand Marnier
Don’t worry, some of our standard classics, like Pitmaster Spencer Smith’s “Smoked St. Louis Spare Ribs,” will still be there! Next week, Chef Dube will be bringing one of our most popular weekend specials onto the menu nightly! Sorry, can’t tell you just yet! OH, and speaking of weekend specials, we will now be offering TWO platter style meals every Friday & Saturday. The “CARPE VINO BBQ PLATTER” will focus on all things smoked and/or grilled. ~~~Can’t lie, pretty excited about what Chef Dube and Pitmaster Smith have concocted for this weekend.~~~ The second platter (yet to be named) will essentially be a prix-fixe meal with two different proteins to choose between. This is an absolute fantastic opportunity to get the best of CV all in one shot!
As we continue on this path, we are constantly developing more ideas/plans as to how to restructure Carpe Vino into a viable/profitable restaurant and bar while adhering to all restrictions and protocols presented by our state and federal officials. We want to make sure that when “dine-in” service resumes, you have an experience satisfying enough to join us again and again! We firmly believe that we will get there!
Thank you as always for your continued patronage and support!
