Taste Test: 'Cue Fest at Nectar's
Tuesday, April 15, 2008
Summer came early for the 150 hungry people who attended our 7 Nights Bite Club event at Nectar's: They got to nosh on local meats such as barbecued chicken and pulled pork as well as classic "picnic" sides such as potato salad and coleslaw. The battered and deep-fried pickle slices were an unusual treat. What was for dessert? Slices of creamy cheesecake and miniature pies in maple pecan, maple buttermilk and chocolate "mud season."

    Taste Test: Lake Champlain Chocolates
    Wednesday, March 12, 2008
    According to Gary Coffey of Lake Champlain Chocolates: "Everybody eats chocolate, but very few people ever taste chocolate." At our 7 Nights Bite Club event at the LCC factory on Pine Street, 40 enthusiastic guests got to learn about how chocolate is made as well as how to describe the aromas and flavors experienced while tasting this "food of the gods." The lucky attendees got to practice their new skills while sampling the company's forthcoming line of organic truffles, which nobody outside of the company had ever tried before.
