I saw that Fox Creek Tavern on High Street in Ipswich was planning a special tasting event for Chandon Garden Spritz (which is my new favorite sparkling wine) so I went online to make reservations to enjoy the tasting and the music along with our dinner. I was not disappointed! There was a special menu of Garden Spritz drinks (I tried Speed Racer) and half price appetizers. GMG Jim ordered pretzel sticks with cheese dip. Jim’s meal was a Turkey BLT sandwich and I chose the blackened fish tacos (with Gloucester haddock). They offer a salad bar which is unusual around here. We were glad to have made reservations because it got busy during the dinner hour. Madisyn, our server, gets a shout out for taking great care of us.
The Chandon representative at the tasting was friendly and informative. The music was entertaining, though I neglected to take note of the artist (my oversight) so the deck dining was lively. We hadn’t been to Fox Creek Tavern in a while but it’s worth the short ride.
