The Rib Room Bar & Restaurant Introduces A Unique Cigar Pairing Menu



    07 Dec 12
As the winter evenings draw in, The Rib Room Bar & Restaurant in Knightsbridge (Cadogan Place, London SW1X 9PY; www.theribroom.co.uk; tel: +44 (0)20 7858 7250) is launching a new pairing menu, marrying one of The Rib Room’s finest cigars with a spirit to perfectly complement the after-dinner experience.

The carefully curated pairing menu by Head Sommelier Louise Gordon matches a range of the finest cognacs, whiskies and sherries with a cigar of the highest quality from The Rib Room’s humidor.

Cigar fans buying two boxes of cigars will be entered into a draw to win the chance to store their cigars in one of the exclusive cigar keeps free of charge for a year.

As night falls, The Rib Room’s cigar terrace is transformed into a COSA (Cosy Outdoor Smoking Area): heated, hidden away and providing a paradise for cigar aficionados to indulge their passion and savour their selection to the fullest.

Head Sommelier Louise Gordon comments: “We have an outstanding selection of premium spirits and quality cigars in stock at The Rib Room so I am thrilled to present a menu that pairs the distinctive aromas and flavours of both so well. I believe we have created a varied menu that guests will enjoy, learn from and revisit again and again.”

A highlight from the cigar pairing menu is a Cohiba Maduro Genios cigar accompanied by a glass of Zacapa 23 Year Old, ultra-premium rum. The unique honey, butterscotch, spiced oak and dried fruit flavours beautifully offset the toasty leather and nutty qualities of the Genios.

The Rib Room Bar & Restaurant is a legendary Knightsbridge institution offering an array of modern British dishes redefined for the 21st century by Head Chef Ian Rudge, created using the finest ingredients from the four corners of the UK. Diners can choose from a blend of classic British dishes such as the signature Aberdeen Angus rib of beef and modern, seasonal options all accompanied by a carefully selected wine list presented on fully interactive iPads.

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
