And if that wasn't the most delicious holiday-inspiring list you've ever read ... read on, my friend, just read on...
Season's Greetings from ravine,
I hope this email finds everyone well and in the Christmas spirit! I know most of you are concentrating on the holidays, but I thought I would take a moment to talk about New Year's Eve at ravine.
Certainly, many of you will be going to Texas to watch Ole Miss pummel Oklahoma State in the Cotton Bowl on January 2nd. For the fortunate people who will count down 2009 in Oxford, allow me to tempt your tastebuds with the event we are putting together.
For the third year, we are putting on our Truffles and Bubbles NYE event. The menu will be structured similarly to years' past, with four full courses, and some smaller, surprise courses thrown in throughout the meal. There will be choices at each of the full courses, ranging from foie gras, to lobster, to racks of venison. The menu can be found online at our website, oxfordravine.com. I've just copied and pasted it below:
New Year's Eve Ravine Menu
Amuse Bouche
a little something extra from the kitchen to get your palate excited
First Course
duck three ways—roasted breast, confit of leg, seared foie gras, cherry star anise gastrique
or
Coldwater langoustines butter poached and served with a corn, bacon, and celery root custard, finished with bacon and roasted garlic aioli
Second Course
jumbo lump crab and sweet potato bisque, seasoned with curry and coconut milk
or
salad of mache lettuce, with lobster, mango, cucumber, and avocado, coriander vinaigrette
[Intermezzo]

or

Dessert

or
tart tatin tower of apples braised in caramel jus, filled with apple pastry cream, pecan sable cookies
Truffles and Bubbles
We are even more excited about the prospect of pairing wine with our amazing food this year for the first time. Unlike some other restaurants here in town, the wine pairing will not be mandatory and is completely optional. However, we will have some fantastic vino available to be properly paired with each full course, as well as some surprises throughout.
Many of you that know us are aware that we usually do not brag or blow our own horns much. However, in this case, we feel that we will have the best gastronomic event in Oxford, if not the state, this New Year's Eve.
So, if you are going to be in town, call and make reservations soon before we fill up on our time slots. We will not be overbooking, as the night should be leisurely and relaxed.
Seating times will be 6-630 or 8-830, and you are more than welcome to ring in the New Year at ravine if that is your wish. We will have plenty of bubbly on hand for those that wish to stay. The cost will be $65 per person, and the optional wine pairing a mere $20 extra.
Thanks, and Merry Christmas to each of you.
