Maurepas Foods + Tales of the Cocktail = Great Meal

So, I finally made it down to Maurepas Foods in the Bywater & I am proud to say, it did not disappoint. A group of 4 signed up for the Tales of the Cocktail 5 course food & vodka pairing dinner. It was epic!


As you can see, the menu was fairly extensive and experimental. The total cost per person before tip was $65. 360 Vodka sponsored the event & did a great job with shirts, coasters, and providing the booze.

Below are some of the plates Maurepas served with the variety of exotic vodka cocktails:


Above is the sweet peppers and cucumbers which was a great opener - very refreshing!


The best of the 5 courses pictured above - Fried Tofu Sandwich. The bread was terrific!


Photographed above is the gulf crudo & kimchi puree. This was a great palet cleanser, but a bistro style portion.


Last, but certainly not least is the grilled beef with the aged balsamic salad. Delicious. This meat looked like it was cooked in a sous vide = perfect!

Overall, Maurepas seems like the place to be in the bywater. Hip with all walks of life inside having a good time. Loud & exotic. I cant wait to go back!
