While Merriam-Webster defines a cotillion as an elaborate dance or a formal ball, Doc Ford’s has another, more interesting definition thanks to New York Times best-selling author Randy Wayne White. “Each Saturday at sunset, the fishing guides and the live-aboards throw money in a pot to finance Dinkin’s Bay weekly Pig Roast and Beer Cotillion. The name is misleading because pigs and cotillions don’t play a role. Beer, however, does.” - Captiva; 1996.
A special Louisiana-style menu will be served at both restaurants that includes such southern favorites as Fried Catfish, Creole Remoulade, Chicken Jambalaya with Andouille sausage, ham, peppers & onions, collard greens with smoked bacon & onions and cornbread.
Taking center stage, Doc Ford’s is thrilled to showcase the Selwyn Birchwood Blues Band and their unique brand of swampy, Florida Blues. This extremely popular group has performed internationally at premiere venues including “Terra Blues” in New York City, “Big Muddy Blues Festival” in St. Louis, “Beltline Blues Fest” in Calgary, Alberta and “Buddy Guy’s Legends” in Chicago. 2010 has seen them opening for the nationally acclaimed acts of Texas Bluesman Sonny Rhodes, Robert Cray, John Lee Hooker Jr., Zac Harmon and Joanna Connor.
