One Spot Left - Not Your Grandma's Sherry: A Specialty Dinner

One Spot Left - Not Your Grandma's Sherry: A Specialty Dinner

Host: 
Sarah Boucher, chef, partner at Metrovino, and Al Drinkle, partner at Metrovino


Class Type: Specialty Dinner
Price: $185 per person
Availability: Almost Sold Out

Class Description:
Sherry is Spain’s greatest wine, and food’s best friend. Above all else, one should embrace it at the table while foregoing the erroneous notion that all white wine is supposed to be pert, fresh and redolent of grapefruit or green apple. When a drinker abides their innate human love of savoury flavours, the glycerolic and umami-driven charm of sherry will benignly haunt them for the rest of their lives.

There’s really two kinds of people on this planet—those who love sherry, and those who don’t yet know that they love sherry. This dinner will appeal to both types, although the latter would be particularly well-served by attending.

Respectfully, we cannot accommodate guests with allergies or dietary restrictions at this event.

Please note this is a sit-down dinner, as opposed to a hands-on cooking class.
