Introducing our March Dinner…. this time we are focused on foods from the French Basque Country. A region in Southwest below Bordeaux and bordering Spain. It is most well known for the piment D’Espelette, a wonderful smoky chili that is used liberally!
Our three course dinner will feature tapas style starters, a hearty slow cooked stew with saffron rice and a decadent almond vanilla cake with dark cherries.
Thee will be optional wine pairings as usual and maybe a cocktail kit.
