“I’ll have a glass of pinot”, you say. For the 469th time.
But do you even know what that is? Or do you just like the way it sounds, P-I-N-O. It’s time to get to the bottom of the glass. Woman, drink up and get educated.
Jamie Drummond (from Good Food Revolution) and Chef Fan Zhang have teamed up for a pinot pairing that will undoubtedly make February taste better. Join them, and a table full of interesting wine enthusiasts, for a delicious dinner and wine pairing at Mr. Flamingo next Tuesday.
