for their anniversary in June. I had the raspberry kir royale while my husband had his usual tail, a rusty nail. For first courses we had the tuna tartare and the Crispy Calamari. Both were good but I didn’t really get a...

adds a nice element to it. Of course, there is also the Kir Royale - cassis with champagne. Have fun!

couple of months and were impressed. Our first trip back was a baby step: we stopped in for dessert after a dinner elsewhere. The creme brulee was fabulous and I had a kir royale that was very festive. Our next trip was for a full...

It doesn’t make sense to use a premium champagne for tails since subtle nuances will be lost to whatever you are mixing in. But there is no reason why a dry champagne wouldn’t be preferable...it really depends on what...

Just finished this and found it generally a charming read (although, unusually for Slater, a tad patronising at times) . No recipes but a series of little snippets about products and other things Brit-foodie. It will be generally...

Phil Jay Rayner reviews “Lumiere” in today’s Observer. And it reads like the sort of food I really want to eat. Get this is as dessert described only as “jelly & cream” - kir royale jelly,...

greetings all round from the Patron, Bernard, the Chef Jean-Marie and the waitress Sylvie. We started with Kir Royales at the bar. I noted they were very cheap and that they also offered a wide range of flavours other than the...

of liquor. I got a mimosa, though the rest of the table ordered Kir Royale. Sweet, and the tea arrived soon after. It was rather hilarious because the waitress had switched our teas around and three of us were left drinking...

Edendale Grill definitely has champagne tails — they make a very nice kir royale. I also like the champagne tails at Vermont Restaurant (on Vermont near Hollywood in Los Feliz). They have a champagne tail made with...

and was asked if I wished a tail. My kir royale appeared almost immediately and was as perfect as I had already trusted it would be by ordering without specifying the measure of cassis, or asking the champagne, as I have learned...

and the bottle of wine, sat us and offered an aperitif – I had a Kir Royale and DH had a Lillet (which they keep chilled, a nice touch compared to many places where they then serve it on ice). Soon after, some AMAZING bread...

Or a classic champagne tail with bitters and a sugar cube. You could do a couple of different champagne drinks tht appeal to different tastes. A kir royale for the sweeter, above for the more bitter taste, just strawberries for...
