The Communal Table at Miradoro Restaurant

Late-harvest dining series at Tinhorn Creek Vineyards celebrates fine Okanagan ingredients

Miradoro Restaurant, British Columbia’s premiere winery restaurant, is pleased to announce The Communal Table, its weekly late-harvest dining series featuring fine Okanagan ingredients. The destination restaurant at Tinhorn Creek Vineyards offers stunning panoramic views of the South Okanagan Valley wine country and features Mediterranean-influenced cuisine that showcases the region’s finest ingredients.

Premiering Tuesday, November 22nd, The Communal Table will bring together locals and visitors to celebrate regional food and wine and friends both old and new. Carefully crafted by Executive Chef Jeff Van Geest, the first of the series’ weekly-changing family style menus opens with a light salad of lettuces dressed in good olive oil and vinegar with preserved summer tomatoes and soft-boiled egg. Beef Kalimotxo Cocido, a rich one-pot meal of Okanagan’s Finest Angus Beef neck braised in red wine and cola with local vegetables, porcini mushrooms, potatoes and broad beans, is a hearty main course served as multiple dishes. Fresh cheese with Similkameen honey and Agassiz hazelnuts is a delightful third course, while chestnut and marsala cake with amoretti and dulce de leche gelato round out the meal.

In keeping with Miradoro Restaurant’s food philosophy, The Communal Table will feature fare that is local, rustic, simple, straightforward and seasonal. In the kitchen, Executive Chef Jeff Van Geest is guided by the belief that there’s nothing better than simple, well-prepared ingredients from our local fields, forests and ocean. Drawing inspiration from Spain, Portugal and Italy – cuisines designed to pair perfectly with wine — Van Geest works closely with local farmers and producers to pay homage to the bounty of the Okanagan.

Miradoro proudly serves the award-winning wines of Tinhorn Creek Vineyards, including both current and rare library releases. Developed by General Manager and Sommelier Justin McAuliffe, the wine list also includes a handpicked selection of standout wines from other notable wineries across BC, such as Road 13, Mission Hill and Quail’s Gate.

Held at 6:30pm on Tuesdays from November 22nd until the end of the year, The Communal Table menu is $25 per person. Reservations are required. Individual dates will be cancelled if a Christmas party is booked.
