NEW ORLEANS (press release) – With National Caviar Day around the corner (July 18), Criollo shares new, limited time caviar specials that will run through September.
- Southern Fried Chicken & Caviar – 1oz Kaluga Caviar, Whipped Buttermilk Ricotta, Gaufrettes, Lemon-Chive Crepes – $95
- Served during lunch, Monday – Friday from 11:30 a.m. – 2 p.m.
- “Fried chicken is a southern staple, especially here in New Orleans, and the addition of the Caviar elegantly takes this classic to the next level.” – Caleb Chafin, Director of Restaurants & Bars at Hotel Monteleone
- Grilled White & Green Asparagus – ½ oz Kaluga Caviar, Pancetta, Cured Egg Yolk, Lemon Butter Sauce – $50
- Served as a side dish during dinner, Thursday – Monday from 6 – 9 p.m.
- “Asparagus and caviar are the perfect pair because asparagus is naturally low in sodium and goes well with caviar by taking away some of its saltiness without changing the flavor. The citrus Beurre Blanc is an ideal sauce as the cured egg yolk completely elevates the flavor.” – Caleb Chafin, Director of Restaurants & Bars at Hotel Monteleone
