Number nine - Currents

Cheers, April, 2003

Valentine's Day is past, but it's worth taking a look at the special menu created for use at Napa Valley Grille this February. Filled with information about those foods considered in myth and history to be true aphrodisiacs (from artichokes and anise to truffles and walnuts), the menu boosted sales and created much talk among the Grille's guests and customers, we're told.

With cocktails such as the Red Hot Martini (Vox Vodka shaken with many Red Hot candies), Red Velvet Bubbles (Chandon Brut and Beringer Cabernet Port), and, yes, of course, Love Potion No. 9 (Godiva liqueur, Stoli Razberi and Baileys), how could it not?
