Hello, Feastlings,
In early June, the American Wine Society hosted a tasting here at Feast with food pairings, charm and chitchat, and they enjoyed it so much, they asked us to do another one. As it happens, they had an enjoyable time and chose to have another one with us here- this one will take place on Wednesday, July 29th, at 5:30 pm- and once again, they’ve graciously thrown open the doors to include non-members as well. If you’re keen on our last-Saturday-of-the-month tastings, you’ll enjoy this one too: four wines, three ounces of each, and each served with an amuse-bouche that’s been specially composed to match the wine.
If you’re a member, they’ve already sent you a menu and a save-the-date; if you’re not, don’t fret. You’re still invited, but you’ll need to call us at (520) 326-9363 to ask us to hold a seat for you. It’s $55 inclusive of tax and tip, and the menu, if you’re curious, looks like this:
