Goin’ to the Bistro, gonna eat a lot of peaches.
bids farewell to summer — and looks to the crisp days ahead — with its first-ever on Thursday, Sept. 18.
Chef Matt Selby concocted a five-course meal to celebrate the end of Colorado’s peach season, each dish featuring the fruit somewhere within. The dinner begins, however, with a tasting of bourbon from , out of Hye, Texas.
Distillery co-founder Charlie Garrison will be on-hand to guide the tasting and chat about the Brothers’ history and techniques. A Garrison Brothers cocktail accompanies the amuse bouche course, too.
So what’s on tap for the main event?
Selby’s menu puts the peach in the spotlight for some dishes, like the first course’s grilled peach paired with lamb shank confit. Others take a more subtle approach. And then there’s the perfectly simple dessert: fresh peaches, ice cream and peach club soda.
The dinner, with wine pairings, is $75 per person and starts at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Get on the list by emailing whitney@centralbistrobar.com.
Keep in mind, as well, that the menu could get switched up — so don’t get too attached to the idea of “braised rabbit leg with Olathe corn cake and peach butter.” (Fingers crossed.)
