Tonight:
Cibus White Truffle Dinner

Save room for the second course of roasted veal tenderloin with Madeira and foie gras demi-glaze; and pan-seared scallops, finished with truffle zabaglione, shaved fresh truffles, roasted baby winter vegetables and duchess potatoes (Barolo, Beni di Batasiolo), before enojoying a sweet finisher of traditional asti coffee custard served with vanilla beignets (Moscato d’Asti, Beni di Batasiolo). The entire smash will run you $80 per person, a moderate price to pay for a pre-Thanksgiving warm-up.

The Grape’s Bonny Doon Come-As-You-Are Dinner
Chef Brian Luscher will create a 3-course bistro-style menu to complement hand-selected Rhone-style wines from the Bonny Doon Wine Portfolio from Santa Cruz, CA. The Grape’s monthly wine dinner provides a fun, casual setting, that allows the guest to “come-as-they-are” and dine at their own pace, allowing for a more festive one-on-one format with the wine experts. Themes include a wine expert/host for the evening who speaks to each individual table about the wines selected. On this occasion, Eric Swindle of Serendipity Wine Imports will be on hand to discuss the selected varietals. Cost is $45 per person exclusive of tax, gratuity and other beverages. Dinner reservations available from 5:30-9 pm. 2808 Greenville Avenue.
