Dear Feastlings,
Every once in a while, someone comes through town that it’s worth making a fuss over them. Such is the case with Yohannah Burmeister. Who, you ask, is Yohannah Burmeister? She’s the representative of Winebow for the western states, and she’ll be in town with a bunch of really cool French wines, all brought into the US before the 25% tarriff on French wine starts up. So here’s the deal: Yohannah joins us on Tuesday, October 22, at 6:30 pm. We make a special dinner, each course built around one of her wines. You come join us for something delicious. You get a discount on these pre-tarriff treats. Everyone is happy. The menu is below, and you’ll need to make a reservation the old-fashioned way: call us at 326-9363. Web and email reservations won’t hold a seat for you. But think about it. Here’s the menu:
