"A Night in Napoli at PESCE" -- Tannic Tongue Wine Dinner 7/12/17

"Simply Prepared, High Quality Seafood" is the mantra at Pesce and the use of a blackboard menu allows for the constant flow of new ideas and surprise dishes to look forward to, every visit.
While Pesce is a wonderful destination to dine for 364 evenings in 2017, the wining and dining that will be offered on Saturday, August 12th will be the best of class and we hope that you will join us for this fulfilling occasion.  

Our great friend, Dr. Aziz Shafi of TANNIC TONGUE Wine Distributing, and Chef Andrew LaPorta of Pesce DC have recently undergone the most painstakingly delicious exercise in creating a wine and food pairing that thrilled them to the bone.  I've talked them into, and they've agreed to, re-creating the experience for you, me and our luckiest pals.
Please take a look at the extraordinary 6-Course Menu below and don't wait to purchase your ticket(s) for what I think is a steal of a price; $100 per person, all inclusive.  It's litterally the best deal in town; and it's on a Saturday!!!
This price includes:  six exclusive food courses by Chef LaPorta, six premium, ultra premium and/or collectable small-production wines from TANNIC TONGUE's portfolio, tax AND gratuity, wine & food insight provided by Dr. Shafi and Chef LaPorta, PLUS the opportunity to purchase your favorite wines from the dinner at extremely discounted pricing (only offered to guests of the dinner) from Chat's Liquors on Capitol Hill.
I'll see you at Pesce!
