RED-WINE

BURGUNDY

Calling all Burgundy Lovers

Eli’s Table is a casually elegant neighborhood restaurant and a destination for wine lovers, where local and seasonal—both hallmarks of Eli Zabar’s philosophy—come together beautifully. Boasting a wine list of over 25,000 bottles, Eli’s Table is widely considered one of the most exciting places in the city to drink aged Burgundy, and Old World wines. Join us for dinner --this is the time of year that wine lovers live for, meat-centric menus, white truffles, all good excuses to go deep and dark.

New Year’s Resolutions…

…are made to be broken, but let’s try for the month of January to eat more green vegetables. Start with a big pot of soup: onions, leeks, celery and carrots sautéed till beyond golden, chard stems, cubes of squash and shredded Savoy cabbage added with water or chicken stock, once they are soft, add baby spinach or kale or bok choy, let them cook until just wilted. Serve with a tablespoon of olive oil and a sprinkling of parmesan. Or puree it all into a velvety greenish bowl of good health. Call the Home Shop Department and tell them you want the soup ingredients delivered to your door.

Liquid Gold!

Liquid gold is an exaggeration to get your attention, but it also speaks to how proud I am of our selection of Fall harvest 2024 olive oils. Valgiano oil has just arrived from Tuscany, and we expect shipments from Liguria and the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily. These precious oils are long on flavor and health-giving properties. I love it on toast instead of butter. Come in and have a look or let the HOME SHOP Department know you’d like to add some olive oil to your next order.

BRUNCH

Worth getting up for…

For us, the cozy season (by which we mean January and February) is about brunch with friends on lazy week-end days. Good coffee and a menu where you can’t decide what you want because there are too many choices you love. This happens on Saturdays and Sundays at Eli’s Bar ’91 where the everyday grab and go menu gets serious and there’s a served brunch. Breakfast has always been the most important meal of the day, but brunch is often the most fun.

FLOWER DEPARTMENT

Flowers

Winter in city, means winter gardening –windowsills or any sunny spot that can hold a pot deserves blooming bulbs – narcissis, hyacinth, tulips and daffodils are all pushing up earth and yearning to bloom. No green thumb? Think about branches - camellia, cherry, and forsythia. These cool weather crops, their gentle fragrance and hints of color are ideal remedies for these long, dark days.

Dry January

Have you visited ElisList.com? The cozy sliver of a shop with the great big old world wine cellar? While red may be more traditional in cold weather, we love their suggestions for “Dry January” –dry white wines and brut champagnes can make it a very enjoyable month.
 

 What's on Eli's Mind

January and February can be tough months. The fortunate few get away. The rest of us either go on a diet or if you’re like me, you get busy with new projects. I’ve got two on my plate at the moment—the re-opening of Eli’s TABLE, this spring and planning needs to begin for the 50th anniversary of EAT. We’ll keep you posted….
