Bastille Day Biere de Garde dinner at Bank Street Brewhouse.

"On Wednesday, July 14, the Bank Street Brewhouse will honor France’s national holiday, Bastille Day, with an exclusive five-course, fixed-price French menu prepared by Chef Josh Lehman and his intrepid kitchen staff.

"As before, this year’s Bastille Day meal comes complete with flavors of French-brewed Bieres de Garde, as well as American craft versions of Northern France’s famous specialty style of malty, food-friendly ale.

In 2010, we’re adapting a changed Bastille Day format of a single-seating beer dinner, and pairing the beers with the food in an order yet to be determined as of this writing. The Publican will provide comments on the beers. Note that mussels and frites will be available on the 14th for those seeking a lighter bill of fare."

This sounds fantastic.

Totally forgot about this and tried to stop by for something light tonight -- just can't do a 5-course meal on a day like today. We'll be back later this week though I'd say. I even read this post the other day but the date didn't click I guess.

Thanks to everyone who turned out last night. We served 26 people, and if I may say so myself, the Biere de Garde pairings were lovely with Chef Josh's courses.
