Windsor Court Pairs Lobster, Foie Gras, Wagyu Filet Mignon,  And Zaca Mesa Wines

Next Tuesday, we have an opportunity to see just how good this Mike Collins, the new executive chef of the Windsor Court Grill Room, really is. There's a wine dinner involving the wines of Zaca Mesa, with the president of the winery, Brook Williams, in attendance. He's bringing all his best stuff, including some rarities.

Here's the menu:

Hors d’oeuvres
Z Gris Rosè

Mousseline & Bisque Of Nova Scotia Lobster,
Sevruga Caviar & Crème Fraiche

The price is $95, plus tax and tip--so, about $125. Make the reservation at 523-6000. Ask to be seated at my table (if you like). I'll be there all alone.
