blue Danube Gourmet To Go

Big hello to bD friends --- If you happen to be in Skan., you will notice the former bD space is quickly morphing into another very special little spot....to be opening soon. Lorand and I are delighted that the new proprietors will be bringing more yummy (healthy/fresh/good-for-you) options to the landscape of this great village! Keep an eye out! Enjoy the summer!! Erica

Friends of the Former blue Danube -- Look again for signs of life coming soon to this very special little space.....

Dear Facebook Friends & Family - Sad news to share....blue Danube has closed. Lorand and I thank you all for so warmly welcoming us into the Village and making our shop such a special place. It was truly shaped by all who entered and gathered there....sharing laughter, stories, recipes and impromptu visits with friends and neighbors. You never knew who you might run in to! Again, thank you for your support and friendship!

Just whipped up an artichoke pate bruschetta. Easy breezy to make and oh-so-yummy! A must try for your next gathering! Feel free to vary the ingredients depending on your tastes. In a cuisinart, add marinated artichoke hearts, really good olive oil, sea salt, garlic cloves, a dash of red pepper flakes, fresh parsley, sliced almonds (i toast them stovetop), sharp/grated pecorino or romano cheese and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, spread on toasted baguette crisps and voila! Enjoy!!

Coming soon to a special little gourmet shop near you...Organic Pumpkin Cheesecakes! Absolutely the perfect balance of smooth pumpkin pie and creamy cheesecake - the best of both worlds! Orders are now being taken for Thanksgiving. Think out of the box (and pie tin) and serve up something extra special for the season! YUM!
