6:00 – 7:00 PM French-style grillade – a barbecue of lamb chops, Fatted Calf chipolatas pork sausages served with tomato, cucumber, and bell pepper salad, baguette and optional mustards.
3 chops – $22.00
2 chops + 1 sausage $20.
3 sausages $ 19.00
Buy your tickets at laperolestrois.com (events page).
All day cocktail special: La Jacqueline, also known as JaJa, a popular southwestern France festival drink, perfect to celebrate Bastille Day. Ours is made with L’Apero les Trois Meyer Lemon Apéritif, Perrier, Berryessa Gap Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc and a dash of Grenadine. $8.00 No ticket required.
