Is the Moon Made of Cheese?

In a word, yes.

But in other cheese related news, The St. James Cheese Company, a place this blog would marry if such things were in fact allowed (they aren't we checked) will host a wonderful dinner this Thursday night. Chef Ashbell McElveen (a name which sounds like an amazing 20 year old single malt Scotch) will offer up his take on the Southern focused, French influenced cooking of the Caribbean and Americas.

The cost is $60 a person and reservations can be had by calling 899-4737. BYOB. A nice white Burgundy should work well with this menu. And speaking of menus, here it is:

Grilled Louisiana Crevette w/ Ashbells Hand made Bacon aux sauce Rum Nouvelle Orleans w/ 3 Italian Cheeses Cornbread Croutons

Matatu de Crabbe la Guadeloupe Aux Mirlitons Grilled Curried Crab w plantain dumplings from Guadeloupe

Salad de Legumes Grille w Garlic, Virgin Olive Oil, & Herbs

Seasonal Grilled vegetables Artisanal French Cheese Plate

Gateaux de Pèche Tartan aux FormageDoux
Caramelized Peach Cake Tartan

Hand made Bacon? Is that even legal?

EDIT: I have been informed by Danielle Sutton that tomorrow night's dinner has been cancelled due to an illness in Chef McElveen's family. We wish him and his family well during this tough time. Stay tuned for the rescheduled date.
