Description
The Pursuit of Pleasure ... Surf Vs Turf ... An Exploration of Sensory and Emotional Enjoyment, catered by Cat in the Kitchen. Date: Saturday, March 25th @6:30. Open to the public @$69.99pp, ALL INCLUSIVE. Includes 4 glasses of Rancho wine & 8 small plate pairings, education and a great time! Limited seating, RSVP and advance payment required. What is pleasure? Everybody can relate to the idea of the pleasure of eating or drinking something delicious. It's enjoying what we like (and avoiding what we don't). This evening we will explore pairings that go together and maybe some that either don't or you would have never thought of pairing. Our Chef, Cathie Moreno, was featured on Diners, Drive-in's and Dives with Guy Fieri!
