2011-06-08T21:48:00.001-04:00

Bobby Plough is a Texas native who has come to love Elizabeth City almost as much as the Elizabeth City community has come to love him. Most folks know Bobby as the entrepreneurial owner of the ever-popular Cypress Creek Grill located in downtown Elizabeth City. Not only is he a chef and businessman, he has developed quite the reputation as an extraordinarily talented singer, songwriter and musician.
Bobby is schedule to perform his Texas-Mex genre of country, folk, and Americana on Saturday, June 11, from 7-10 pm. He'll be joined by Adam Nixon, another talented local favorite. He is a mid-Atlantic version of Jimmy Buffet in that his songs are written from his life experiences and performed in a Texas-Mex genre of country, folk, and Americana. An avid surfer, horseman, and nature lover, he certainly has many experiences to draw from.
Bobby’s performance will be a laid back acoustic solo gig. He will perform songs from his popular CD, “Barn Full of Memories” which was written on the beach in El Salvador. Don’t be surprised, however, if he invites a friend or two to join him on stage.
Doors open at 6 pm. $5 cover charge. Deli fare served 6-9 pm. $5 cover. 252-335-1163

2011-02-02T18:30:00.000-05:00

Chuck Hodges is not only an amazing entertainer, he's one of those supremely humble ones who, when you tell him how great he is, you'll see him tilt his head to the side in an aw-shucks-style, shyly say, "thanks," and immediately start telling you about how great the other guys in the band are. Always one to share the spotlight, he's a mentor, an encourager, and a promoter of up and coming new talent, which is why his band changes from performance to performance. There is always someone new and exciting who will join in for a song or two, or five.
I describe Chuck and his band as a little bit country, and a little bit rock and roll, with a smidgen of modern pop thrown in every now and again.
More specifically, "progressive modern rock and alternative country." The result is a "bluesy-folksy, roots-rockish, guitar-centric sound." Everyone who hears Chuck Hodges and His Makeshift Band falls in love with their laid back style. They will calm you and energize you at the same time. Their music has a way of making you feel like all is right with the world.
Entertainment 7-10 pm. Deli fare served until 9:00. 252-335-1163

December 1, 2010 -- Wednesday Wine Tasting

2010-11-30T14:49:00.004-05:00

We're pretty sure our December tasting will be one of the most eclectic wine tasting you've ever attended. We're serving blueberry wine slushees (frappes), sparkling wine with 24 karat gold leafs (I call it Sparkling Snow Globe wine), mulled wine with spices, ice wine, ChocoRaspberry, and Mouton Cadet Red Bordeaux.
For the last 5 years or so, our December wine tasting has been reserved for our Sparkling wines. We don't want to "burst your bubbles" but this December we're thinking outside the box (or bottle, if you will), and doing something a tad bit different. We're going to serve a variety of both traditional seasonal and holiday-type wines and non-traditional drinks. It'll be fun and unique.
--A Blueberry Wine Slushee -- Officially known as Frappe Vino, this is like a wine margarita! You take a bottle of your favorite wine, a bottle of water, and a bag of Frappe Vino mix, combine and freeze for a couple of hours. You'll get a frozen, slush delight!
--Chocovine Raspberry -- Last year around this time, the brand new Chocovine Chocolate wine was all the rage. This year, the same company has created a Chocolate Raspberry heaven in a bottle. Delicious chocolate, with a raspberry zing. Hint...this would make an incredible frappe.
--Augsburger Christkindlmarkt Gluhwein -- Popular around the world, mulled wine is wine (usually red) served warmed and spiced with cinnamon, vanilla, and cloves. At home, you can add a little brandy or vodka to "spice" it up even more.
--Schmitt Sohne Ice Wine Eiswein -- Ice wine is a type of dessert wine made from grapes that have been frozen while still on the vine. The sugars and other solids don't freeze, but the water in the grape does. The end product is a more concentrated, very sweet wine. It's a labor intensive and risky production process, so icewines are typically quite expensive.
--Peter Brum Goldsparkler -- Personally, this is the coolest thing I've seen in awhile. It's a sparkling, drinkable snow globe! No, not really, but it is a sparkling wine with real 24 karat gold leafs -- the goldslager of wines. Your instinct is to pick up the bottle and shake it like a snow globe -- something you really shouldn't do with a bottle of sparkling wine.
--Mouton Cadet Red Bordeaux -- To bring some normalcy and refinement to the tasting, we will also be pouring a solid red wine that will pair well with your upcoming holiday meals.
Tasting will be held from 6-7:30 pm. Cost is $15 and includes drinks, appetizers, printed tasting notes, and lots of fun!

December 3, 2010 -- Catdaddy

October 6, 2010 -- Wednesday Wine Tasting

2010-10-04T23:29:00.001-04:00

This month's wine tasting will be the Pro-Am of tastings. We are featuring wines from the wineries of golf legends Greg Norman and Nick Faldo. Plan to drive on downtown Wednesday evening and dogleg at the corner of Main and Water Streets. You'll address your glass with the proper grip and a solid stance at the bar. Instead of a foursome of wines, we'll be tasting a foursome, plus two. The front three will be Norman's California Estate Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and Faldo's Australian Sauvignon Blanc. On the back three, we'll tap into the cup a Cabernet and a Shiraz by Faldo and a Zinfandel by Norman. You tell us which wines are up to par. There will be plenty of mulligans, and we promise to get everyone out of the rough by the end of the evening. Be sure to have your caddy lined up for the drive home.
Cost is $15 per person and includes tastings of six wines, appetizers, printed tasting notes, discounts on purchases, and lots of fun!
Our planned appetizer menu includes: Baked Cheese & Almond Crispers, Garlic & Brown Sugar Cheese Balls with Graham Crackers, Baked Peanut Butter & Bacon Stuffed Peppers, Baked Ravioli with Pumpkin Sauce,
Sweet Potato Bread with Pineapple Butter
RSVP not required but requested (so we know how much food to prepare). Email d_malenfant@yahoo.com or call 252-335-1163 to RSVP.
