Pops For Champagne Description:
There's a definite buzz going on at Pops for Champagne, and not only because of all the sparkling wine being served (120 or so different varieties by the bottle and seven by the glass). Don't know your cava from a prosecco? No worries since the well-trained staff does. Located in the historic Tree Studios building---Pops moved from its low-key Sheffield location after a 24-year run---this hot-spot combines a Champagne lounge with a downstairs jazz club and retail wine shop specializing in---you guessed it---bubbles. Here, food plays a more prominent role. In addition to cold and hot bites from chef and Alinea vet Andrew Brochu (oysters with black pepper-shallot marmalade, baby octopus drizzled with 25-year balsamic, roasted wild banana prawns in chorizo-sherry bouillon), there is a selection of Champagne-friendly cheeses, charcuterie and desserts. Of course, there's caviar as well. Over the years, we have enjoyed dishes such as barbecue pork belly with rutabaga purée and lamb flatbread with Brussels sprouts. Chocolate soufflé tart with white chocolate gelato and another glass of bubbly is a great way to finish.
