Vinifera, which offers an extensive wine list and modern American food, now has a new edible delight for diners to try. They have added a pintxo menu for patrons to order as an appetizer before their meal or to be eaten as a snack while sipping wine. These dishes will be served on skewers and include:
“Boquerones (Anchovies), Tomato, Parsley and Garlic”
“Caramelized Onion, Tarentaise Cheese and Olive”
“Abruzze, Appellation and Quince Paste”
“Speck & Farmstead Cheddar”
“Harrisa Dusted Shrimp, Olive and Tomato”
“Crispy Baby Artichoke and Smokey Blue Cheese”
“Fresh Mozzarella and Oven Dried Tomato”
“Medjool Date and Lime Chirvel Mascarpone”
All of these fresh ingredients will be taken from the on-site garden at the restaurant. The best part of these tasty treats is that they are priced at only $1 each!
If that’s not enough to get your taste buds watering, Executive Chef Bo Palker will also be introducing another menu of tapas-style plates priced at $3 to $6 each. These items will include:
“Lamb Kafta on Pita with Tzatziki Sauce”
“Lobster Cohiba in Sweet Chili Sauce”
“Portuguese and Venison Sausages with Spicy Mustard and Green Tomato Marsala Compote”
These small, flavor-packed portions are a great way to try a variety of flavors without spending too much money. Since they can be mixed and matched, it provides a more communal sense of dining while also encouraging more conversation amongst diners.
