Here are some Ideas for Valentines day. I was thinking of offering 3 courses for 35 dollars.
Maybe we could offer a wine flight for 15 dollars? My thought is even if only one person orders the Tasting menu, we should be able to get the other guest to order 3 courses also. In addition I think some people like to have a package to order from so they can plan on the costs. It is a tough economy and there has to be some type of deal to bring in the guest without devaluing our restaurant.
This is a sample of my menu, consisting of a Starter, Entrée and Dessert.
Sexy , Simple and Sweet
Diver Scallop Soufflé with Creamy lobster broth and caviar garnish.
Alaskan King crab Ravioli with black truffle carpaccio and parmigiano reggiano.
Bitter sweet Cordillera Chocolate Truffle cake, with Illy cappuccino mousse and milk chocolate gelato.
As for the wine pairings I would probably pair the three courses with wines from Italy. I would be hard pressed to think of another country that produces better wine for food pairing, especially the old world style. I would pair a prosecco with the first, something a little dry, a Pinot Grigio with the second course maybe from the Trentino region, like Terlan Pinot, and definitely a Brunello di Montalcino from Il Poggione a perfect match for bittersweet chocolate.
