It’s the last weekend before the Thanksgiving and I think we should stuff our faces with delicious Italian food and wine. This is not a specific tasting and pairing, just a night of pure indulges in all things Italian.

About the venue: “Authentic, regional Italian cooking and seasonal availability is the inspiration for Chef Amy Brandwein’s menu at Centrolina. Guests, with views of fresh market produce, an open kitchen and terracotta-clad wood oven, are immersed in the cooking experience as they dine.
The menu features seasonal and frequently rotating dishes that showcase regional food from all over Italy and relies heavily on what is offered in the chef-driven market, whether that’s pinched beef ravioli, spaghetti alla chitarra with chanterelle mushrooms, grilled branzino or wood-roasted meat and vegetables. The beverage program features a wine list that combines imported Italian favorites with the best of Virginia, a beer selection that skews heavily local and a short list of classic Italian cocktails given a contemporary twist.”

What more can we ask for to ring in the holiday season?!
