We're Bubbling Up With Excitement for 10th & Piedmont's Annual Event


The city of Atlanta is bubbling with excitement over 10th & Piedmont's upcoming event. From Wednesday, February 12 through Tuesday, February 25, the Midtown restaurant invites guests to experience Caviar & Bubbles. This annual event is a tasty experience that won't leave you, or your wallet, hungry. Mouthwatering á la carte items are made with farm-raised sturgeon caviar developed by the University of Georgia and perfectly paired with a select bubbly. Tempting choices grace the menu like "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" plate paired with Zonin prosecco. Larger sampler platters are also available to share. And if caviar isn't your thing, don't worry - the regular menu will be served daily. Reservations can be easily made online!

Vodka Wishes and Caviar Dreams at Morton's Buckhead

Friday night Morton's in Buckhead hosted a vodka and caviar tasting. Yep, you read correctly - vodka and caviar. Would you expect me to say anything other than it was truly a night of decadence??

The evening started on the right foot when I spied the four gorgeous Mortinis offered for the evening. Morton's made a brilliant decision by offering half pours of each Mortini so you could try each one: straight up, raspberry, lemon thyme or cucumber. As bizarre as it may sound, the cucumber was by far my favorite, served with a salt and pepper rim with tiny bits of muddled cucumber floating in vodka. It was a great flavor combination.

The vodka being featured during the tasting was Imperia vodka; I know, I had never heard of it either. The distributor assured me it was an ultra-premium Russian vodka, and, after a side by side comparison with Grey Goose, I was sold. It put Grey Goose to shame!

Hors d’oeuvre included Petrorussian caviar on toast points, tiny spoons of cream cheese topped with caviar, sliced smoked salmon, tuna tartare canapés and sliced tenderloin on crostini. All in all, it was a completely delicious and decadent evening!
