Bottle Battle - Monday, July 25

Recommended Posts

Chef Danny Bortnick of Firefly will partner with Chefs Kyle Bailey and Tiffany MacIsaac of Birch & Barley to prepare a five-course fundraising dinner benefiting the Susan G Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure™, which Bortnick and his wife will participate in this fall. Chefs Bailey and Bortnick will prepare two courses each, encompassing cuisine which both of their neighborhood restaurants honor: American comfort food with a modern twist. Award winning pastry chef, Tiffany MacIassac will prepare fare for a sweet ending. As well, you will be welcomed with champagne and seasonal bites.

This however will not be your ordinary multi-course tasting menu. With a special appearance from San Francisco, Kimpton Restaurants’ Master Sommelier, Emily Wines, will select her perfect varietal for each course, while Neighborhood Restaurant Group’s Greg Engert will pick his favorite beer pairing. In a true test of what pairs best, two of the industry’s most notable beverage experts will go head to head in a “bottle battle” of beer vs. wine. Guests will enjoy five dually paired courses before “electing” their favorite: beer or wine. A lively discussion of each pairing will be detailed by both competitors. In the end, votes will be tallied and either Engert or Wines will be crowned as winner. A silent auction will also be held, including hotel stays, restaurant gift certificates, wine and jewelry.

Cost is $150 per person, all inclusive.

Not intentionally written in the third person, I just simply copied and pasted from our event page. Anyways, this night is going to be a lot of fun and I figured this was the best forum to drum up some interest. Hope to see some DR peeps there.

This is a riff on BattleBots?
