Our next Summer Wine Stroll on Wednesday, June 2 features Caymus wines. This is not your typical wine dinner; it’s a way for our neighbors, chefs and winemakers to meet, eat and greet! Four wines. Four pairings. Under the setting sun on the patio. $38 per person. Space is limited...don't wait to make your reservation!
IF you recognize this pretty face, consider yourself, 1) lucky, and 2) apart of the Blackhawk Grille family. If you don’t recognize her, read on, because this is our bartender and buddy, Hollie, and she wants to welcome you to the BHG fam!
Hollie is known to make her patrons personal friends, and remarks that this has happened quite often over the course of her 14 years at BHG.
“I bartend for the people,” Hollie says. “I love interacting with our guests. They turn into family to me, and I’ve made quite a few great friends here.”
In addition to the great people, Hollie says there are some other perks to her job, including a plethora of salad options and an overall soothing atmosphere, to which she gives credit to the pond outside. Water in general, but specifically the ocean, provides a calmness, she says.
“If I could go anywhere, I’d go on a long vacation to Hawaii, to the ocean, to relax. Something about the ocean is calming to me.”
If she’s not behind the bar, chatting with her guests while shaking drinks, Hollie is probably in her garden, or—when she has the time, energy and patience—hitting balls on the golf course. But if you’re lucky enough to find her behind the bar (Monday through Friday nights), sit down and get ready to chat with one of our favorite BHG team members…Hollie!
Mother’s Day is almost here, so we’re cleaning, polishing, and sprucing up around Blackhawk Grille (because we know our moms would notice!) Are you looking for a delicious and thoughtful way to show your appreciation to your mom, grandma, step-mother, aunt, sister (oh, how the list goes on!)? How about a Sunday morning brunch featuring an oyster bar, omelets made to order, a selection of carved meats, and brunch classics like Eggs Benedict, French toast and breakfast potatoes, and even sushi rolls, pot stickers, and crab-cucumber salads? There’s food to suit every taste, and enough champagne for mimosas all around. Make it a family affair or enjoy some quality time with mom over brunch at the Blackhawk Grille this Sunday, May 9th. Because no gift beats the gift of quality time and gourmet food with mom.
