| Acacia Bistro chef Ravi Narayanan’s menu steers the restaurant’s cooking towards the Mediterranean and away from its former American roots. Foie gras mousse and pâté de campagne appetizers may be followed by either small plates (if you’ve stopped by for a glass of wine or two) or something more substantial, such as hand-made pappardelle with braised lamb ragù or a seafood risotto, even a Moroccan-spiced lamb shank. Tempting as well are grilled prawns with romesco sauce. Look for such desserts as a chocolate tart, or pear and vanilla brioche with a wine-poached pear. The menu may change seasonally as the chef is dedicated to farm-fresh ingredients, and it might also reflect his globally influenced cooking style. The owner has composed an extensive wine and beer cellar, so do take the time to study its offerings. |
