Rhubarb lovers, check out Canoe's current Rhubarb tasting menu

Looks interesting!

    Thanks for posting this, I agree it does look interesting. Generally rhubarb ends in desserts, but I often pair it with fish or pork. Rhubarb is also magical with riesling. I have done a black cod dish similar to the one on their menu and it worked well with riesling. My experiences with Canoe have been mixed, but I may have to check this out.

      I also like pairing rhubarb with duck and chicken.

      Libretto was offering a rhubarb cocktail yesterday, and I had a rhubarb caiparinha at Campagnolo last year. I'm hoping some restaurants offer rhubarb bellinis this spring. If anyone sees any rhubarb bellinis, please mention it on the board.

      Also, Nota Bene currently has a rhubarb dessert, with rhubarb sorbet, poached rhubarb and puff pastry. Very light dessert.

      Really enjoyed a rhubarb pavlova that I had ordered at Scaramouche a couple years ago.
