Leslie's The Tavern At Rockingham Newsletter Summer 2010
|
The plan, wait for rainy day..write newsletter. Since mid June that has not worked well...so my apologies for the delay..
Lots of changes at Leslie's since the last newsletter. If you have been to dinner here recently you surely noticed the menu has changed. We now offer a expanded choice of salads and appetizers that gives you the option of paring an appetizer with a salad for dinner... Because we no longer offer a salad as part of dinner we have reduced the price of entrees to make it more affordable. The hope here is you join us on a more regular basis. We still want to be that "special" place..just more affordable in these tough economic times. Our menu also changes nightly featuring lots of fresh local ingredients. You can check out an example of our nightly menu on our web site, www.lesliestavern.com
With fresh vegetables arriving daily we are excited about the many ways we can use them in our menu. We are currently making fresh "flatbread" daily..for an appetizer...as well as fresh maine peekytoe crab cakes..(made daily). We also have vegi potstickers with napa slaw as a new appetizer
Our fresh scallops wrapped in prosciutto with poached in butter Maine Lobster tail and corn risotto is a new favorite. The flavor combination's are excellent. Grilled Lamb sirloin with mint and almond pesto..caramelized onions port sauce is delicious as well. In our cooking classes we developed a great new steak sauce that is killer! The sauce comes on our Black Angus New York Sirloin...with caramelized Vidalia onions. With all the warm weather seafood has been a very popular. We now offer a classic french bouillabaisse full of scallops.. shrimp..Cod ..mussels and little neck clams. This might be "my" personal favorite. Our favorite fish.. fresh Atlantic Halibut is a regular on the menu as well.Every week we are offering a vegetarian special and vegan special for those who call ahead and request a vegan option. We think you'll be quite pleased with the new menu selections, lower prices and over all value.
