Did you know that Mark is French? Yup, his dad was born in France and Mark was born in Montreal. Quite a citizen of the world that Mark Pascal.
So this year, we're going to do a little celebrating on Bastille Day! Actually that's what we call it in English-speaking countries. In the Francosphere, it's simply La Fête Nationale.
Our pals at Hennessy are going to be supplying some of their lovely Cognac, with which we will make some extraordinary cocktails. In the frozen drink machine will be a Frozen Side-Car (Hennessy VS). We'll also feature the French 125 (Champagne, Hennessy VSOP, Lemon, Dreams) and our version of the B2C2, called The Greatest Generation Cocktail (one of our favorite creations. Benedictine, Hennessy VSOP, Cointreau, Champagne, Aperol, Bitters & History)
We will also have available 1 oz tastes of Hennessy VSOP (Complimentary), Hennessy X.O. (Complimentary), Hennessy Paradis (at cost $29) and Hennessy Paradis Imperial (at cost $95 or $50 for 1/2 oz). If you're inclined to cigars, I promise you there is nothing better in the world.
All French wine by the bottle will be 1/3 off and The New Brunswick Jazz Project is sending over Flip Peters. Flip learned to speak French before he learned to speak English. In addition to his repertoire of French songs, he sings in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Yiddish.
So come down for some escargot and beef tartare (or burgers and steak). Click here for reservations.
