What's on the Menu?

In just a few short hours we will be celebrating the launch of Ralph Brennan's Seafood Cookbook at Ralph's on the Park. The weather is holding steady at a bright 85 degrees and all signs are pointing to a successful event tonight. It's perfect New Orleans weather for a sipping a Sazerac on the balcony overlooking City Park.

As the invitations were recieved and more people heard about the event the number-one question I have been asked is "What's on the menu?"

So for all of you who haven't asked but are dying to know what food Ralph Brennan has planned to serve at the party of the year, here you go... dig in!
