Thursday Night Dinner at Flavor Bistro

Here's this week's Thursday Night dinner at Flavor Bistro. Dinner is served course by course at a communal table. Paired with 4 wines--all for $24.95.



Torta Di Carciofi E Pomodoro--Warm Ricotta Torta Filled with Baby Artichokes, Organic Toy Box Tomatoes, Olives, Sun-Dried Tomatoes & Sweet Basil, paired with 2014 Tenuta Sant'Antonio Scaia Garganega/Chardonnay I.G.T., Veneto, Italy. This was delicious. I loved the crust and the different vegetables on a bed of ricotta. The wine didn't have the buttery taste of a chardonnay and tasted like a sauvignon blanc.



Quaglia Arrosto--Pan Roasted Quail Served with Green  Lentils, Bacon, Escarole & Homemade Petite Gnocchi in Sugo D'Erbe, paired with 2013 Paul Hobbs Winery CrossBarn Pinot Noir 
Sonoma Coast. The quail is so well seasoned. I picked the bones clean. The Pinot was a perfect pairing. It had such a nice nose and taste.


Agnello Ai Ferri--Grilled Marinated Local Lamb Loin Chop Garnished with Roasted Radicchio, Sweet Corn-Fontina Polenta Served in Sugo Di Olive E Maggiorana, paired with 2013 Sean Minor Cabernet Sauvignon, Paso Robles. The lamb was cooked medium rare and the polenta was creamy and delicious.


Bomba--Italian Style Ice Cream Float, Vanilla & Chocolate Gelato, Espresso, Sweet Cream & Almond Gremolata, paired with 2010 Novy Family Wines 'Oley' Late Harvest Viognier, Russian River Valley
