BEHIND THE BAR

Sarducci’s Is Special

Montpelier Mixologist Celebrates Food, Family and Fun

S

ome people progress through their career with visions of a porch and a rocking chair at the end.

Not Debra Lewis.

“My biggest fear is having to retire,” says Lewis, the head bartender at Sarducci’s Restaurant and Bar in Montpelier. “I love that restaurant and all the people in it.”

Lewis began her career at Sarducci’s 24 years ago, first bussing tables but quickly finding herself behind the bar. For nearly two-

and-a-half decades she’s greeted customers, gotten to know them, mixed up their favorite cocktails, listened to their stories and provided some good-natured ribbing when required.

“When people walk through that door, they feel it,” Lewis says. “They can feel the warmth.

They sit at my bar and tell me that everyone there seems happy and that everyone is friendly to each other. And the truth is, with so many personalities here, there are very seldom any personality conflicts. That’s because of the

people behind us. If someone has a problem, there are hugs and open arms. It’s because of those two women.”

The women Lewis refers to are Sarducci’s founders Carol Paquette and Dorothy Korshak.

The pair were working and managing restaurants in central Vermont in the mid-1990s when they decided to open a destination featuring fresh, locally sourced, authentic Italian food. Since 1994, it’s been one of the best-known go-to spots for great Italian fare.

“They (Paquette and Korshak) would never ask an employee to do something they wouldn’t do themselves,” Lewis says. “That’s what makes a great boss and a great restaurant. They’re awesome. For example, they don’t have an air conditioner in their office because the cooks in the kitchen can’t have one. That’s the kind of people they are.”

It’s an approach that’s helped forge a meaningful bond and a sense of loyalty between the Barre resident, her coworkers and her customers. Lewis’s personal cell phone will often start ringing at 11 a.m. with regulars looking to reserve a table that night. Lewis makes sure they’re well taken care of.

“Those are the people that carry us through the winter,” she says. “We make sure we always have room for those local people. Even during foliage season – we keep openings for them.”

It’s a sense of belonging Lewis doesn’t expect to change anytime soon.

“Our head chef, Jeff Butterfield, is the heart and soul of the place now,” she says. “In a few years he’ll be the new owner, and he doesn’t plan on making any new changes to the way we do things — which is awesome for anyone who works here.”

What was your first night behind the bar like?

“It was exciting. I had already been a bartender at my mother’s restaurant, and I had been waitressing a little while there. Once I started, I ended up having a full bar every Saturday with reservations because we raised hell and had such a good time. It was fun. I’ve always felt very comfortable here. Nothing is overwhelming about Sarducci’s.”

What do you like most about your job?

“The people. I’ve been here so long that when people come in they let me say whatever I want and do whatever I want. I’ve been here so long that I’m like the mother hen to the kids in the kitchen — and also the customers. I like the Please drink responsibly.

What advice would you give aspiring bartenders?

What’s a cocktail that Sarducci’s does particularly well?

“Be yourself and have fun. And do a good job on your work. Do your work well. Work hard, have fun and most of all, be yourself.”

“Well, this is unique, but we do have one that the customers call ‘The Debbie Margarita.’ It’s just a Cuervo margarita with Grand Marnier on top, but even the head chef asks for it by that name. But we do have a cocktail that’s really great called the Forbidden Sour. It’s Barr Hill Gin with pomegranate liqueur and fresh lemon juice.”

If you weren’t a bartender, what would you be?

“I love my job so much that I can’t imagine doing anything else. I guess I’d be a salesman selling something. I can sell. I’ve been told that before. If someone comes in, I’ll look at a customer and say, ‘How about some oysters?’ Next thing he’s saying, ‘Yeah, that’s a good idea.’”

They’ll start talking, and I tell them, ‘When you come into this bar, don’t talk about your problems, talk about mine. It’s all about me.’

Everyone will bust out laughing. And then they make me laugh. Montpelier has a lot of really cool people.”

Share a behind-the-bar secret.

“Being able to mix drinks and talk to people at the same time is a real skill. When people get busy, sometimes they can’t talk. People will tell me, ‘Debbie you have eyes in the back of your head.’ This weekend we did over 1,600 covers from Friday to Sunday. On a Friday night I can do 350. I’m making every drink, juice, milk, soda for the whole restaurant. That’s a lot of drinks. While I’m doing that, my mouth is still running. That’s a skill. Being able to communicate with customers while doing your job.”

At the end of a shift, I… “Sit down at the end of my shift at Sarducci’s — it’s always so busy that I have to come home and unwind for three hours. That’s how busy it is. I can leave the restaurant at 11 p.m. and at 2 a.m. I’m wide awake and wired. So I try to relax.

I watch TV — probably ‘CSI’ because it’s the only thing on at that hour.”

Always drink in moderation.

STEVEN SODERBERGH’S

WEAPON OF MASS BLISSFUNKSHUN!

BY T. AZIMUTH SCHWITTERS

A

s my blindfold is removed i n the foyer of Steven Soderbergh’s office—he’s

notoriously wary of journalists—I try to remember the list of things his low-powered publicist insisted I not ask him about: his life, his work, his appearance, and (crucially) his upcoming VicePresidential run. Waiting for his arrival, I use my smartphone to peruse the pdf I was sent entitled RULES OF ENGAGEMENT, which details the do’s and don’ts (mostly don’ts) of interviewing Dr. Soderbergh (Pratt, 2010).

The takeaway is this: don’t look him in the eye, and only talk about Singani 63. The following is an unedited transcript of our conversation.

TAS: Dr. Soderbergh, thank you for— SS: Actually, my friends call me “Milord”.

TAS: Oh…well.

“Milord”, I didn’t—

Sorry,

SS: I didn’t say you were a friend, I said that’s what my friends call me. I don’t even know you.

TAS: Right. Why don’t we just start right in-SS: Eyes!

TAS: (looks down) Sorry.

SS: Didn’t you get the pdf?

TAS: Yes, I—

“PEOPLE SHOULD EXPECT SOMETHING EXCEPTIONAL, UNLESS THEY THINK BECOMING INVISIBLE ISN’T EXCEPTIONAL.”

SS: So you either didn’t read it, are unable to read, or simply ignored it.

TAS: I suppose in the moment, I forgot…

SS: Not a terribly helpful quality in a journalist, a bad memory.

Distilled from a single variety white grape—the Muscat of Alexandria—whose definitively aromatic character makes a unique spirit.

LeBron James, I’m wearing Vetiver by Guerlain, and I can prove in a court of law that George Clooney does not

TAS: No, I suppose not.

Why don’t we— SS: I’m approximately 5’ 11”, 143 lbs with hazel eyes. I am the fourth reincarnation of

have my cell phone number. (pause) SS:

Is

there

anything else?

TAS: I didn’t know you could be the reincarnation of someone who is still alive.

SS: I thought we were here to talk about Singani 63.

Why are you babbling about who’s alive or not?

TAS: Okay, when you first-SS: This whole construct is ludicrous. I knew this was a mistake.

“Advertorial”. What does that even mean?

TAS: Well, if you’re going to sell— SS: Eyes!

TAS: (looks down) But if you’re going to sell a product, particularly a spirit,

and make yourself the face of that product, you need to expl— SS: I don’t need you to tell me what I need to do. I know what I need to do, and what I need to do is to get my teeth cleaned every four months because I build up plaque very easily.

TAS: I see. But the point I’m trying to make is that it’s virtually impossible to— SS: “Impossible”? You’re going to tell me what’s impossible? Okay, first of all, that’s impossible. Or should I borrow your phrase, “virtually” impossible, which is a weak-kneed hedge of a statement. (long pause) TAS: How did you discover Singani 63?

SS: I didn’t discover it, man, it’s been around since the 16th century! That’s more years than you have brain cells! Some Spanish missionaries or monks or something brought these white muscat grapes from Alexandria and planted them in the Andes so they could party on the road. And now you’re here.

TAS: Let me rephrase— SS: Please do!

TAS: How did you find out about Singani 63?

SS: At the start up party for Che—my unappreciated masterpiece about the most photogenic revolutionary of the 20th century—my Bolivian casting director, Rodrigo Bellott, gave me a bottle.

TAS: What did you like about it?

SS: That’s a very personal question. Next.

TAS: Can you describe its qualities?

SS: Can you outrun a cheetah?

TAS: No. I don’t think so. No. SS: Then you realize how inane your question is.

TAS: What does it taste like?

SS: Like something I want to drink! Ye gods! Why would I spend six years and my own money importing something I didn’t like to drink?

TAS: I was trying to give people an idea of what to expect— SS: They should expect something exceptional, unless they think becoming invisible isn’t exceptional. This isn’t some swill peddled by a billion-dollar corporation and fronted by a paid-for

celebrity in the hopes of making a profit off an unsuspecting public—this is a unique spirit brought to the United States of America in order to line my pockets with cash from discerning, adventurous souls with a penchant for the truly authentic. It’s important people understand that distinction.

TAS: Right. Talk about the Domain of Origin and Geographical Indication designation.

JOIN THE MILE HIGH CLUB Singani 63 is unique among spirits to be given both a DO (Designation of Origin) and a GI (Geographical Indication). That’s your assurance the grapes are grown at a minimum altitude of 5,250 feet, and only within the confines of the historic home of Singani in the Andes.

SS: Is that a question?

GOLD MEDAL

TAS: What? Oh—

Singani 63 is the proud recipient of a Gold Medal, the top honor from the prestigious International Craft SpiritAwards. New studies will show Singani63 becoming as popular as breathing!

SS: Eyes!

TAS: (looks down) Could you speak about— SS: The whole point of Domain of Origin and GI status is so people understand you can’t just make this stuff anywhere with any old grape. Only this specific grape, grown and distilled in only this 20,000 acre parcel of land above 5,200 ft in Bolivia, can be made into Singani 63. To give a sense of scale, twenty thousand acres is Steven Soderbergh can approximately the size totally outrun a of Jay Z’s New York cheetah. apartment. It’s very special juice, is what I’m saying.

TAS: As evidenced by its BTI score of 94…

SS: I used to think such things were total cat poo, like the Oscars, the Emmys, the Independent Spirit Awards, the New York Film Critics Awards, the Los Angeles Film Critics Awards, and the National Society of Film Critics Awards. But now I understand that only the BTI people and the Grammys really know what they’re doing. I feel confident with the right amount of flattery and shaming we can get that number even higher. And win a Grammy. Excuse me.

500 YEARS OF HERITAGE Distilled from a single variety white grape—the Muscat of Alexandria—whose definitively aromatic character makes a unique spirit. Missionaries first brought these vines to the Bolivian Andes so they could party on the road.

Mission accomplished!

80 PROOF Singani 63 is a superb stand alone spirit while equally mixable.

Drink it on the rocks like Steven Soderbergh or try one of our inspired inventions and get ready to circle the globe in your head!

IMPECCABLY CLEAN TASTE That’s a direct quote from Paul Pacult of Spirit Journal (which is not about paranormal activity, by the way). He also said Singani 63 has a “pleasing bouquet of delicate harmony,” which means if this were a pop song, it would be a smash!

(sound of door opening and closing. long pause) Mr/Dr Soderbergh

Mr. Dr. Soderbergh’s never returned, and within the Singani63 private jet. hour a very nice assistant entered to blindfold me and arrange my transport. Although he left many questions unanswered, I was intrigued by Mr/Dr Soderbergh’s passion, if not his social skills, and I resolved to try some Singani 63 as soon as they tossed me out of the van.

Sipping Slim The Skinny on Low-Cal Cocktails

SUMMER COCKTAILS CAN BE LIGHT ON CALORIES AND DELICIOUS WITH THE RIGHT INGREDIENTS

By Bill Burke

I

t’s been a long time coming, but summer has finally arrived in the Green Mountain State.

Shorts and t-shirts have replaced bulky coats — which means we may want to keep a closer eye on what we’re sipping.

With garden parties, barbecues and picnics filling up our calendars, there will likely be plenty of opportunities to sample some great cocktails.

And while it’s true that alcohol can be rather calorie-dense, there are options that will allow even the most calorie-conscious cookout attendee to partake.

A typical 80-proof spirit, like rum or vodka, contains about 96 calories for every 1.5 ounce

serving — about the size of a shot. But here’s where things get complicated: Calories in mixed drinks can add up quickly thanks to a number of elements, including the proof of the alcohol and the size of the drink. The higher the alcohol content, the higher it will likely be in calories. While a 1.5 ounce serving of 80-proof liquor can have 96 calories, a 90-proof serving can contain 110 calories and the same size serving at 100-proof can contain 124 calories.

Also, watch what goes into that cocktail.

Mixers alone (and chasers) can turn a moderately sweet drink into a sugar-bomb. Common Continued on page 10

Please drink responsibly.

A common question, then, is ‘what is the best cocktail I can drink while I’m on a diet?’ In some cases, simplicity works. A vodka and soda will contain just 96 calories, thanks solely to the vodka. Just fill a glass with ice, add vodka and top with soda water. Including a bit of fresh lime juice will add four calories, but also a bit of flavor.

Likewise, a rum and diet cola will get all of its 96 calories from the rum. Combine the ingredients and serve over ice. (Squeeze in a little lime juice to transform it into a Cuba libre.)

On the other hand, there are spirits that, while tasty and provide the opportunity to indulge in exotic or unusual flavors, bring with them higher calorie counts. According to delish.com, Everclear grain alcohol can have as much as 285 calories per 1.5 ounce shot, partly due to its high alcohol content. Likewise, Bacardi 151 can have 185 calories per shot. It’s not a simple rule, however. Though it’s only 30-proof, schnapps can have 195 calories in a single shot because of its high sugar content.

Similarly, liqueurs tend to have higher calorie counts because they’re typically higher in sugar. As for cocktails, drinks like the mojito (approximately 220 calories and 25 grams of sugar) and the margarita (approximately 275 calories) fall into the high calorie category — depending, of course, on how they’re prepared and what the ingredients are.

Luckily, distillers have produced ready-todrink options that cut the calories while keeping the flavor. While the regular margarita may challenge your healthy-sipping efforts, the Chi-Chi’s Skinny Margarita is a convenient, ready-to-drink and easy-to-serve option. The tequila and triple sec are already mixed-in, and the sugar is substituted with agave nectar Please drink responsibly.

Skinnygirl White Cranberry Cosmo is a lower calorie take on a classic. This readyto-drink cocktail combines hints of orange essence, a subtle lime flavor, berry fruit notes and cranberry with agave sweetness. It’s an easy mixer — just pour into a martini glass, garnish with a few cranberries on a toothpick and serve.

Here are a few simple tips to lower the calories in your drink: • Skip the mixer and sip your favorite sipper on the rocks: no sugary mixers or chasers means no added calories.

• Consider mixer alternatives, such as water, low calorie fruit juice, vegetable juices, sugar-free syrups and artificial sweeteners.

• Substitute soda water for tonic water.

• Keep an eye on portion sizes.

• Order drinks with lower-proof alcohol for (typically) lower calorie counts.

Here are a few light versions of some favorites.

Start with a handy addition to many drinks — a sugar-free simple syrup.

Sugar-Free Simple Syrup courtesy thedailymeal.com

Boil a cup of water in a small saucepan. Add two tablespoons of powdered stevia. Continue to boil the water until the stevia dissolves completely. Once it’s dissolved, transfer your water mixture into a small cup and add mint leaves.

Place the cup in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

For a stronger mint flavor, chill it longer.

Light Mojito

Use that hand-crafted simple syrup in your mojito for a skinnier version of the classic: Fill a glass halfway with ice, mix one part rum with two parts of your sugar-free simple syrup.

Add a few squeezes of lime juice and fill the rest of the glass with soda water. Garnish with a few mint leaves or a wedge of lime. The cocktail, according to thedailymeal.com, comes in at fewer than 100 calories.
