February 25 - Winemaker Dinner! Meyer Family Cellars

Definitely save this date as we have Matt Meyer, the winemaker and founder/owner of Meyer Family Cellars here to lead a special dinner. As you may know, Matt is the son of Justin Meyer, who is the founder of Silver Oak. From an early age, Matt’s goal was to be a winegrower like his father. As he grew up, he spent much of his time in the vineyard and cellar at Silver Oak. The passion he developed for wine led him to the University of California, Davis, where he was awarded a Masters in Viticulture in 2002. Matt Meyer is really known for his cabs, syrahs, port, and more. Oh! And we will be opening Silver Oak “Bonny’s Vineyard” magnums from the 1980’s! $85++/person that includes the 6 wines and 5 courses. 6:45pm dinner ~ 6:15pm reception. Seating Limited ~ RSVP and Join us!


February 21 - Cooking Class: Ossobucco and Risotto

For this class, you will be transported form San Diego to Lombardia, Italy, to learn how the perfect Ossobuco is made. The key to classic Ossobuco is exactly how the meat is braised, and that is one of many things you will learn from Chef Accursio. Lombardia is famous for their Ossobuco! And what does a wonderful plate of Osso Buco need? Risotto! Chef Accursio will also lead you to prepare the world’s best risotto where the rice is the prefect level of “creamy-ness” but the kernels are still whole and firm. This is great risotto – but it is not easy to make – unless you join this class! The fun starts at 10:30am 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 — Contact us for details.
