We've got a new fixed-price menu at Sly's.
The menu celebrates the Cuisine of Poitou-Charentes, a sleepy little region at the mouth of the Gironde, the river that runs through Bordeaux. On the other side is Cognac, a region known for it's brandy - you may have heard about it. I was lucky enough to cook in region for a couple of months, and enjoyed the regional specialties enough to give them a try on our menu. The local aperitif, "Pineau de Charentes" (peenoh day sharahnts) is delicious - and featured in one of the salades on the menu, and on the wonderful melon for dessert. Pineau de Charentes is made from fresh grape juice and Cognac, along with a few more secret ingredients. It's a wonderful way to start a meal.
