A couple of notes on some changes and events at 4 Olives:


SUSHI DINNERS – I have relented to your request to do more sushi dinners on Thursday nights. Once a month I will fly in fish and put on the sushi spread. I can’t say exactly which week of the month, because I plan my sushi around the times when fishing is the best, and I can get the freshest product possible. Many of you have also let me know that offering the dinners along with our full menu, allows you to bring along your non-sushi spouse without any complaints. I do intend to continue offering the dinners this way.

THANKSGIVING DINNER – I put a lot of effort in working the menu this year to be the best Thanksgiving I have offered to date. I have been working the menu again and again, until I have become sick of Turkey, and yet it still tastes fantastic. I also scored my mom’s recipe for sweet rolls, which I believe to be the finest baked product on earth. Believe me it is a real treat to have these. Why suffer all the stress of preparing a huge meal with all of your family hanging around and have that huge mess to clean up and leftovers nobody wants. Have your family join mine on Thanksgiving, and let me do all the work!

NEW YEARS EVE – I haven’t put the menu together as of yet, but you can bet it is going to blow your socks off. I have a couple of ideas that I am really excited about. A little tip, if there’s no bowl game this year, then reservations will fill up early. Don’t miss out.

WINE LIST – The finest yet, lots of new wines from Australia, Bordeaux, Argentina, California, Oregon and Washington. The 2005 Burgundies are soon to arrive, best vintage in a really long time and I bought a bunch. It hasn’t been released yet, but we are going to be the first restaurant in Kansas to ever receive an “Award of Unique Distinction” from the Wine Enthusiast. We are excited about the issue coming out later this year.

COFFEE – I have switched all of our coffee to Prebica Vienna Roast. This wonderful coffee and espresso is 100% Arabica beans, shade grown, and certified Free Trade and Organic. We are now grinding to order, and I believe we are now offering some the finest coffee available anywhere.

That's about all for now, but stay tuned for more updates!
