Scottsdale, AZ – Oct. 1, 2014 – Welcome autumn with new seasonal menus in Talavera, Onyx Bar & Lounge, and Proof, an American Canteen. New menus highlight classic fall flavors, and stay true to the distinct concept of each restaurant at Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North.
“The arrival of fall brings a variety of new flavors to work with,” says Executive Chef Mel Mecinas. “Talavera and Proof each offer unique interpretations of the season, with Talavera emphasizing elegant, simple presentations of fresh, seasonal items, and Proof featuring a menu highlighting all things cider. Begin the evening in Onyx to catch the sunset and taste the new menu of small plates and specialty cocktails.”
Proof will offer a three-course harvest menu throughout the month of October, starting Friday, Oct. 3. The menu begins with duck breast served with cider-poached pears, butternut squash and frisee pepper cress salad. The second course is a cider-glazed pork tenderloin with a bacon pear waffle, kale and cranberries. Dessert features apple cider donuts, maple syrup ice cream and candied pecans. The three-course menu costs $44 per person, and begins at5:30 p.m. each day. Beer and cider pairings are available for an additional cost.
The fall Talavera menu incorporates seasonal flavors such as pear, forest mushrooms, butternut squash and sweet potatoes, and offers more than 15 new menu items. Signature classics include the buffalo tenderloin with bacon, blackberry sweet potatoes and ancho-tomatillo sauce, as well as the Chilean sea bass with potato ‘risotto,’ artichoke and braised oxtail. Talavera guests also can select the “Inspire Your Inner Foodie” option, with a six-course tasting menu for $110. Complementing Talavera, Onyx Bar & Lounge also received a menu update just in time for fall, including a new seasonal cocktail menu. The restaurant was recently was named the “Best Lounge Food Phoenix 2014” by Phoenix New Times.
Executive Chef Mel Mecinas is committed to supporting local growers and suppliers. He has partnered with local farms, including Maya Farms at South Mountain, to help harvest the produce that will then make its way onto the Proof, Talavera, and Onyx Bar & Lounge menus. All restaurants also feature locally produced meat and poultry, as well as local wine and spirits.
Proof, an American Canteen, debuted fall 2012 at Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale. The restaurant presents homestyle comfort fare sourced exclusively from the 50 states, and features breakfast, lunch and dinner. Menu choices include fried green tomatoes, shrimp and grits with crawfish sauce, and chicken and waffles with bacon and bourbon syrup. An old fashioned soda fountain serves up nostalgic milkshakes, malts and floats. Guests can take in the outdoors from every angle with walls that open to views of Pinnacle Peak and extensive patio dining. Televisions, games and a bustling bar bring buzzing energy to the restaurant on a nightly basis. Talavera introduces a modern take on the classic steakhouse, with unique steak and seafood pairings, comfort desserts, and a range of specialty sides, accompaniments and starters. Adjacent to Talavera, Onyx Lounge receives its namesake from the amber color-ribboned onyx framing the bar. Onyx showcases a tapas-style menu of small plates and fresh, sweet and savory cocktail combinations.
