T.W. Food Wine Series Dinner: LANGUEDOC

IMG_0794

T.W. Food has been on my to-do list for quite some time. On Tuesday nights you can partake in their wine series dinners (all wines based around a specific region); 4 course prix fixe menu with wine pairings for $55. Total steal and we luck out with Languedoc! All the wines were incredible (side note: thought it strange that they weren’t poured table side). Every course was great except dessert. The squash was not my cup of tea (bitter, bitter, bitter), but the thyme ice cream was heavenly! The service was superb. Can’t wait to try their brunch!
