So fun! We just loved the Distillery District crawl! Our first stop on the tour was a little track down on King St. Massimo Bruno the chef and owner of Massimo Bruno Supper club, gave us a sneak peak into a undiscovered culinary adventure. Massimo has been running these amazing supper clubs, and let me tell you we’ll all be back!! We were presented with Homemade Focaccia Bread, Roasted Oyster Mushroom Salad, Orecchiette with cherry tomatoes and ricotta salata.
Our second stop was at SOMA Chocolatea chocolate maker in the Distillery District! Paul gave us a fabulous lecture on chocolate, how it’s made, all the different kinds of coco beans there are and so much more information. Well we listened and asked questions, Stephanie served us our choice of Mayan or Classic hot chocolate shot, and selection of truffles. Absolutely amazing, thank you Stephanie and Paul!!
We trotted off to Pure Spirits Oyster House & Bar We had some virgins oyster eaters, and they were all willing to try….so fun! We ate a Crispy natural oyster with cucumber mignonette, Shrimp dumpling with smoked salmon and ginger broth, and Paella mixta – chicken, chourico, scallops, squid and mussels. Delicious!!
Our final stop for the evening was Tappos Wine Bar & Restaurant this is the date night location, gorgeous interior and warm atmosphere. Nat cooked us up Risotto, Penne, and deep fried meatballs, a complimentary glass of red wine So Lovely!
Last but not least our takeaway for the evening was handmade Smores and Brownies from The Sweet Escape…thank you Michelle!
