Thursday Night Dinner

We interrupt our New York adventure to bring you the latest Thursday Night Dinner at Flavor Bistro. Another year, yet the 4-course dinner with wine pairings is still $24.95.


Salmone Affumicato--Crispy Asian Style Wafer, Thin Slices of Smoked Salmon, Persian Cucumbers & Crème Fraîche, paired with Cava Juve y Camps Brut Rose, Sant Sadurni d'Anoia, Spain. The salmon was delicious--thin, smoky and flavorful. This was a dark bubbly pinot noir.

Quaglia Arrosto--Stone Oven Roasted Quail Served in Cannellini Bean Ragoût with Petite Pasta, Organic Escarole, Candied Garlic & Brodetto D'Erbe, paired with 2012 Paul Hobbs Winery CrossBarn Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast. I love the quail--so tender and flavorful. Although I'm not a fan of Paul Hobbs, I loved this Crossbarn pinot. It had a nice nose and tasted delicious!



Bistecca Alla Griglia--Grilled Marinated Flat Iron Steak Garnished with Organic Fingerling Potatoes, Onion Confit, Winter Harvest Olives, Arugula & Oven Roasted Tomatoes Served in Red Wine Sauce, paired with 2012 Easton Wines Old Vines Zinfandel, Amador




Vol-Au-Vent Con Mandarini--Puff Pastry Filled with Muscat Zabaione Topped with Satsuma Mandarins, paired with 2011 Bonterra Vineyards, Late Harvest Muscat, Bartolucci Vineyard (Organic), Lake County
