For wine. Rose ordered-what else?- bat a recommended dry rose'. But instead of being poured at the table, my glass disappeared into the pub and came back full. I gave Jim the benefit of the doubt-he was running the place alone. (Later, I spoke to one of the persons attending the private party in the pub, who reported that Jim, drenched in sweat, kept running back-and-fhrth from kitchen to pub to pour drinks-for thirsty folks who had to wait for them.)
The rose’ was one of the new ones coming back into favor .. crisp, dry and just a hint of fruit. Rose wanted to buy a bottle at a wine shop to try again, but Jim didn’t know the name of it.. .’one of those Australian ones with no vowels in the name.’ Good wine but no help there.
The good news: Our first appetizer was Rose s choice, Commeal Crusted Oysters with a Cajun Remoulade Sauce ($11.95). Dusted lightly with commeal and sauteed to perfection, they were juicy and succulent and just crisp enough. Another plus was they were not overly seasoned and Jim had piled them high on a the tasty sauce. Yum! All gone in a few minutes.
