I love living in Downtown LA, especially in our building :) Again, we had such a fun and yummy social for the residents! On Saturday, July 2, 2016, we headed to the 2nd floor lounge with our wine glasses to enjoy “Swirl, Swish, Salut!” What’s that? Well, basically it’s a food and wine pairing :)
Good times were had by learning about the different wines provided by Silverlake Wine now open here in Downtown, yay! Sorry, but I can’t remember who the chef was (Shame, shame on me!!)
The menu included:
(Apéritif)\\ Domaine Vigneau - Chevreau Vouvray Petillant Vouvray NV France
Cured Hokkaido Scallop, Dill, Olive oil, fermented nectarine, Myrna potato\\ Sara Perez i Rene Barbier "Dido" Blanc Monsant 2014 Spain
Braised kofta with slow roasted tomato and Flowering Basils\\ Vesper Vineyards Rancho Guejito Vineyard Young Vine Mourvedre San Diego County 2014 California
Chocolate dipped Strawberries\\ Harrington "Nine Grape Pile-Up" 2014 California
What a great night mingling with our neighbors too! ;) Here’s something that I can do as well as anyone else, no sight needed - eat and drink, hahahaha!! ;)
