Menu For September 24 – 25 2011

admin | September 24th, 2011 - 10:45 am

We’re headed over to Sheldrake Point for the Artisan Fair. You should check it out too. Then, if your hungry, we know a good place for wood fired pizza…

Wood Fired Pizza

BBQ Pizza – We start this pie with a slather of Chef Lerman’s Black-Strap Yankee Bar-B-Q Sauce, add some cheddar cheese, caramelized onions and then give it a few slices of sweet sausage from Autumn’s Harvest Farm in Romulus, NY. Come get it! [$12.00]

The 26 Mile Pizza – Perhaps our most popular veggie pizza, we call this one the 26 Mile because 100% of its toppings are locally sourced (within 26 miles of where our wood fired oven sits). We start it with a base of locally sourced caramelized peppers and onions and chevre from Lively Run. And when we’re done firing it, we finish this pizza with a drizzle of Butternut Squash Seed Oil from our friends at Stony Brook WholeHearted Foods. [$12.00]

Wine

Try the Cayuga Ridge Estate Riesling (which recently won Germany’s Best Riesling of the New World 2010 award) or your favorite red or white.

By the glass [$6.00]

Other Goodies

Treat yourself to a homemade scone from Loon Cliff Specialities!

Rustic. Wood Fired. Local. Arguably The Best Pizza On The Cayuga Wine Trail and In The Finger Lakes Region.

Peach Salsa Pizza (Veggie) – Not sure how to describe this one. Think: open faced taco with a base of peach salsa (from local peaches, corn, tomato, peppers, onions, and cilantro) also topped with black beans, cheddar and a drizzle of homemade creme fraiche. [$11.00]

A Couple Of Updates To The Menu

Yesterday MJ started playing around with a BBQ based pizza using Chef Lerman’s Black-Strap Yankee Bar-B-Q Sauce with Chipotle Peppers as a base. By next weekend MJ says she should have all the ingredients for the BBQ pizza nailed down. Yum.

Also, if you frequent Trumansburg Farmer’s Market, you’ll be happy to know that we now carry cookies and scones from Loon Cliff Specialties.

Wood Fired Pizza

Sunny Side Up Pizza – As usual, we start this pie with a base of homemade creme fraiche from local cows (I know, right?) and then give it a few slices of sweet sausage from Autumn Harvest Farm in Romulus, NY. After that we add a three cheese blend. Then some onion scapes (from the garden). And – living up to its name – we top this pizza off with a farm fresh egg! [$12.00]

The 26 Mile Pizza – Back by popular demand, we call this one the 26 mile pizza because 100% of its toppings are locally sourced (within 26 miles of where our wood fired oven sits). We start it with a base of locally sourced caramelized onions and chevre from Lively Run. And when we’re done firing it, we finish this pizza with a drizzle of Butternut Squash Seed Oil from our friends at Stony Brook WholeHearted Foods. [$11.00]
