"Ripe To Tell">
Oh Come All Ye Thirsty...AND Hungry
December 18, 2009
It's that time of year…
The time when you start mentally converting every drop of Snow in the city to warm sprays of the ocean on a tropical island.
And there'll come a moment during that fantasy—after you've bathed and drenched yourself in a day's worth of that piercing Caribbean sunshine-when you'll need to get off the beaches and sidle up to the Rum bar and order a well-earned relaxing rum punch, and slip into the island vibe……well dream no more, touchdown at Ripe from that flight of your imagination and grab a tall one.
We may not have the beach, but we have "beachy" drinks, lots of heat, and plenty, plenty Island Vibes!!!
Don't stop at just drinks. We have a great lineup of specials for this weekend.
Aunties' Crayfish Soup 4.95
Head-On Crayfish steeped in broth with root vegetables
Island Style Brown Stewed Red Snapper
Super Fresh Snapper from Brazil waters, lightly pan-seared,
and stewed in a Spicy, Rich, Red Wine Brown Sauce.
Served with your choice of rice. 15.95
Braised Short Ribs of Beef
Beef Short Ribs slowly braised all day to create a succulent
“fall off the bone” stew with a rich dark Red-Wine Brown Sauce.
Served with Garlic Mash or your choice of rice. 16.95
Roasted Caribbean Red Snapper
This dish is the favorite of our fish supplier from the Fulton Fish Market. They request it as a special whenever they announce that they are coming to the restaurant to eat. We cheerfully oblige, as long as they give us the pick
of the absolute best Snappers to complete the dish! Supremely Fresh Snappers roasted in the oven in a Light Fish Broth, with Mixed Vegetables, Chinese Lie Mue Greens, and Whole Okra. 15.95
DESSERT
Mango Mousse Cake
Rich and delicious, it’s the perfect dessert to remind you of the tropics!!!
