Taking advantage of the changing season, Chef Janos Wilder has introduced a fall menu at Janos. Just reading the descriptions of the new menu items will have you drooling as you call to make your reservation. I can’t list them but here’s a sampling: an apple and walnut relleno using local apples, green grapes and walnuts with creamy Mexican cheese stuffed into Anaheim chile roasted and served with a walnut sauce and pomegranate seeds and bacon wrapped dates; foie gras duck confit with chanterelle and lobster mushrooms and Tohono O’ohdam Squash; a chilled Willcox apple cider and fennel soup with light blue cheese mousse, a crystallized apple chip and minted jalapeno syrup; and a Mexican lamb porterhouse with Native Seeds/SEARCH Mole.
These menu items can be ordered separately and many are included on a multi-course tasting menu that’s priced at $75 or $115 with wine pairings. If you’d like to see more of the menu, check it on Janos’ website.

Gluten-free at Ghinis Ghinis French Café is promoting that it has gluten-free desserts for those who have an allergy to wheat products. Both of the desserts are tortes — one is the Rigoletto that is three layers of flourless chocolate torte filled with fresh strawberry buttercream and the other is the Carmen that is three layers of white chocolate filled with espresso buttercream. Both tortes are covered with a Guitard chocolate ganache.
