Have you ever wanted to learn how to make pizza in the authentic style from the renowned city of Napoli? How about a tasty Sfincione from Sicily; Focaccia from Liguria?

<a id="Solare-Port-Dinner"></a>16 Persons Total – Special “Evening with Port” Wine Dinner

January 19 - 16 Persons Total – Special “Evening with Port” Wine Dinner

If you like Port – good port – then this is a must attend Wine Dinner. It is being held as a small boutique dinner in our private Prana Room and there will be a limit of 16 persons, including me! The port house is Fonseca and Taylor-Fladgate and every course is paired with a different port – starting with their “white Port”. Delicious. This is an extra special event because: 1) it is a boutique dinner that is limited to just 16 persons in our private room to keep it a more “intimate” gathering … and 2) there are amazing Ports, including: 1967 Taylor Fladgate “Very Old Single Harvest” Tawny Port rated 98 points by Wine Spectator and James Suckling … and other surprise gem too. The evening includes the 5-course dinner and 6 ports – the price is $125/person – and it starts at 6:30pm, Thursday, January 19. – 5 spots left


<a id="Solare-Fish-CookingClass"></a>Cooking Class: Fish and Shellfish + Fish Market

January 14 - Cooking Class: Fish and Shellfish + Fish Market

Meet at Solare and drive together to a local fish market (less than 3 miles) to learn about fish and buying fresh fish with confidence. Then we all head back to Solare to prepare and cook some great seafood dishes. Chef Accursio was born on the coast of the island of Sicily, and he will teach you how to cook the following incredible dishes: Traditional Cioppino (fish stew), Crudo all’Italiana (sashimi Italian style!), and “Pesce alla Siciliana” (whole fish). Seafood lovers will not want to miss this opportunity. NOTE that for this class, the fun starts at 10am instead of the normal 10:30am as we are visiting the fish market. We meet at Solare with an Italian-style coffee of your choice and a pastry. Italian wine is served for students interested in “cooking with wine”. – Limit 10 — $85/student that includes the class, wine, and lunch. Contact us for details. – Sold Out
