September 2016




CAVA est. 2008
September is here and the summer is in the rear view. Thank you to all the loyal regular summer guests and to all the new guests that came in for the first time this season.  It was truly a memorable summer.  I am gearing up for a fun fall menu. The current menu is posted below and will be running through our patio season.  The Patio is open as long as people will sit outside.

A new addition to Cava is our first ever “Happy Hour”
Buy any bottle of wine off our list between 2 and 4pm Saturday and 5 and 6 on Sunday and I will make you a beautiful cheese and meat plate to enjoy with your wine. I found this amazing creamy cow’s milk cheese call “Omorro” from the Azores and will be pairing it with house made jams and fresh fruit, a little Serrano ham and some bread. It’s the perfect afternoon treat on our patio while the weather is still beautiful.
