Happenings at AZUR

AZUR Executive chef Jeremy Ashby and three Kentucky chefs selected to prepare a "Taste of Kentucky" dinner on May 24 at the James Beard House in NYC have submitted their menu. It's another fantastic opportunity to showcase the culinary diversity that has been emerging for the last several years in the Commonwealth. Also, AZUR had a visit from the Lexington Ballet Company during lunch today. Some of the Company struck poses around the restaurant which was really interesting to watch (guests and performers). They were wonderful ambassadors for their organization. See some of the photos on our website at http://azurrestaurant.com/azurin.aspx Next Chef Series dinner is Classically Unadorned on March 10. This dinner features four iconic courses from the past (e.g. Duck a l'Orange and Baked Alaska). When is the last time you saw those on a menu?
