[title type="h5"]Arnaud's Does The Coolinary.[/title] In addition to the Coolinary Menu, Arnaud's has had quite a few special events through the summer, from a couple of wine dinners to a potato spectacular still to come. The Coolinary menu itself offers three choices in each of three courses. The sleeper in this one will be the vichyssoise, to which we are only rarely treated in cooler months. Tip: ask for a little blue cheese salad dressing and stir it into the vichyssoise. The price for the whole dinner is $39. For an additional $16, they'll bring you two glasses of wine to complement the food. The grandeur of Arnaud's dining rooms adds further pleasure.
