Dive into Tastes from the World’s Soccer Powers
Many would argue that a country’s soccer style and cuisine are both a reflection of its culture. Latin countries are famed for their flair and invention while the traditional European powers play with structure and organization and the English can never quite get it right . . .
In honour of the World Cup, Two Chefs and a Table is preparing a special World Cup Wine Drinker Dinner menu that combines dishes and paired drinks from a variety of traditional soccer powers into one delicious night’s celebration. And while some of the greats like Italy, France and Brazil maybe on the sidelines for the finals, the Germans and Spanish are still looking for glory.
The dinner is being held on Wednesday July 7th, during the break between the semis and the final. This World Cup Menu is dinner is $65 per person, not including tax and gratuity. Two Chefs and a Table is located at 305 Alexander Street in Railtown. For more information or to book your table, call 778-233-1303 or email them at info@twochefsandatable.com.
