Not Afraid
Over the years, AZUR has defined itself by being different and not being afraid to try something new and unproven. Three years ago, AZUR decided not to have white table linens even though we are fine dining. This not only lowered impact on the environment but several other restaurants have followed suit. Two years ago, we added "dessert bites" to the menu. What happened? It became one of the top food trends of 2007. Our Chef Series Dinners have featured edible flowers, Appalachian cuisine and game. We are not representing ourselves as "the trendsetters" but we do say that we are not afraid to present something new to the Lexington market. Somethings work and somethings do not.
