The Zaca Mesa Winery Dinner around the corner

Zaca Mesa Winery Dinner
Wednesday October 15th
Reception at 6:30 p.m. and dinner at 7 p.m.
$75 per person, all inclusive

This Zaca Mesa Winery Dinner is one of the Dilly Deli's favorite wine events. Located in the Santa Ynez Valley of Santa Barbara County, Zaca Mesa focuses primarily on Rhone-style wines. The wines will be paired and served with a special multi-course dinner prepared by Chef Eric Vice and his staff.

Now it may seem that $75 is a lot for dinner on Wednesday night, but that includes all taxes and tip, and you'll taste some fine wines paired with some great dishes from Chef Eric's kitchen. Here's a sneak peek of the menu lineup:

Zaca Mesa 2007 Z Gris Rosé of Grenache
Passed Canapés

Zaca Mesa 2006 Viognier

Old Friends and New Faces

The National Exemplar is still celebrating their 25th Anniversary, and keeping with the celebration the restaurant located in the Best Western Mariemont Inn is hosting Friday Nights: The After Work Social.

The desire is to have people "mix and mingle" at Southerby's Pub between 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. to help unwind after the long work week. Contact the Pub at 271-2103 for the various drink specials and complimentary appetizers served.
