Meigas Wine Tasting Event - April 3rd, Norwalk, CT

Monday, March 23rd, 2009 | Restaurant Reviews, wine events | No Comments

Just a quick note to let you all know that Meigas Restaurant will be hosting a Spanish wine tasting dinner on April 3rd, 2009. The tasting will be done by Pablo de Simon, the winemaker for Valserrano. This is going to be a treat, as I am very much in love with their wines from the Rioja Alavesa region.

This is going to be a little different as it will be Friday night. Tapas and wine will be served family style and a fresh carving off freshly grilled Rib Eye steak will finish as a finale just before dessert!

I just ate here the other night and every single one of my taste-buds were tantalized. It was phenomenal food and presentation. Chef Miguel, who is from Galicia, Spain, doesn’t’ just cook food; he creates an ‘experience’ that you are NOT going to find anywhere else in the neighborhood. He takes the idea of eating to an all new level with sophisticated pairings / plating of grilled halibut with a port wine reduction, or steamed muscles with a spicy tomato sauce indicative of adobo. Crispy mushroom ravioli with a cream sauce made from 4 different and rich flavored mushrooms. I was doing the happy food dance!
