Veuve Clicquot Match At Ralph's On The Park

Ralph's on the Park is running a special menu pairing the Champagnes of Veuve Cliquot with an all-seafood menu through the end of this month. The Eat Club was the first to sample it Tuesday night, and we thought it was pretty good--especially the oyster appetizer and the redfish and lobster.

The Veuve Clicquot menu is available nightly. You don't have to make any special arrangements to order it, although a reservation (488-1000) would be a good idea. The price is $65 for the menu, or $85 for the menu with the paired Champagnes, plus tax and tip.

Here are the details:

Garlic Baked P&J Oysters
Louisiana Gulf oysters baked with roasted garlic, tomatoes, fennel and Leidenheimer bread crumbs, served on the half shell
