Big Night, Rich Table


The Rich Table is a lovely new restaurant that recently opened in Hayes Valley in San Francisco. With Zuni and Absinthe closed on a Monday night, I was glad that the Rich Table was open for an unplanned Monday night dinner. With a seasonal menu, there were 4 Market Cocktails on their September 2012 menu. Lucky for me, one of the four spirits featured in a cocktail was mezcal. So I ordered the Big Night. Wow, this is my kind of cocktail. Bold, smoky, savory, gingery, and memorable. A nice surprise was the beautiful pop of green color (clearly from the nasturtium, which is in the watercress family). The nasturtium flower garnish topped off this exquisite cocktail. I am loving all the creativity with cocktails today. First time that I've had nasturtium in a cocktail!

Per previous entries, Rich Table is located in the former home of Paul K, which used to serve one of my favorite Bloody Mary's in the City, Bacon Bloody Mary.
