Weekly Specials January 5, 2009

It's been about a month since I've posted anything. Time flies when you are enjoying the holidays and several glasses of wine! Hotel life isn't improving much; the only thing people seem to be willing to spend their money on these days is bar food. Being that we've had so many private Christmas parties, we've had to accommodate them by closing our restaurant and creating a sort of makeshift banquet hall. In other words, no fun food!
But this week we were finally able to get back into the routine more or less, so this is what I prepared for this week. Unfortunately, we are still limited by what product we can bring in and are really forced to use up anything we already have.

First course is Pumpkin Ravioli, Boursin Sage Cream Sauce, Roasted Red Peppers, and Forest Mushrooms.


For the main course, I made Double-Cut Lamb Chops, Parsnip Puree, Chevre-Herb Stuffed Slow Roasted Tomatoes, Rosemary Pan Jus. I can't wait until I get to play with my food more!
