Bourbon tasting menu at Meritage
This week, Meritage is doing a special prix fixe with a Knob Creek pairing option.
Bourbon tasting menu at Meritage
Tomorrow through Friday, you've got a couple of chances to hit up Meritage (500 S. 20th St.) for a special prix fixe tailor-made for our favorite drink. No beer, no wine, no fanciful cocktails—just a bit of bourbon served alongside each course. Sounds good to us.
The 4-course menu, which is available at dinner from Wed., Dec. 5 to Fri., Dec. 7, is $39 per person. The (not really) optional bourbon pairing will tack on another $29. Look forward to pastrami-spiced and bourbon-cured Skuna Bay salmon with lots of accoutrements, stuffed quail with a cider-bourbon gastrique, and grilled venison in Knob Creek gingersnap sauce. You can read the rest of the details for yourself below (dessert sounds awfully dreamy), including all four varieties of Knob Creek bourbon they'll be pouring.
