Mark your calendars for an extraordinary evening of fine dining and premium wines at Que Pasa Restaurant & Winebar. On Friday, August 30th, starting at 7 pm, the restaurant presents "The Prisoner Experience," a sophisticated food and wine pairing event featuring the acclaimed wines of The Prisoner Wine Company from California.
For $99 per person, guests will embark on a gastronomic journey through a meticulously crafted 5-course dinner, each dish thoughtfully paired with a selection from The Prisoner Wine Company's esteemed collection.
The culinary adventure begins with an amuse-bouche: a velvety Potato-Garlic Velouté, enhanced with parsley oil, bresaola, and crouton. This delicate starter is complemented by the effervescence of Gloria Ferrer Sonoma Brut from Sonoma County, California.
The first appetizer showcases the sea's bounty with a Shrimp & Lobster Tartare, adorned with saffron-vanilla foam, pickled cucumber, potato salad, and a touch of luxury with herring caviar. This exquisite dish finds its perfect match in The Prisoner Chardonnay from Carneros, California.
Next, diners will savor Grilled Pulpo, artfully presented with red wine risotto, grilled yellow squash, green peas, and a vibrant puffed bell pepper sauce. The Prisoner Pinot Noir, also from Carneros, California, enhances the complex flavors of this course.
The main event features a tender Braised Veal Cheek, accompanied by baby carrots, pearl couscous, and ratatouille, all brought together with a rich rosemary-red wine sauce. This hearty dish is paired with The Prisoner Saldo Zinfandel from Carneros, California, offering a robust complement to the savory flavors.
To conclude the evening on a sweet note, guests will indulge in an 85% Dark Chocolate Cremieux, accented with matcha creme, coffee crumble, and pickled orange. This decadent dessert is perfectly balanced by The Prisoner Unshackled Cabernet Sauvignon from Carneros, California.
