ABOUT ABOUT

If the way to your heart is through chocolate and wine, you're going to fall in love this February at The Boarding House! 

Romeo and Juliet.  Milk and Cookies. Sonny and Cher. Peanut Butter and Jelly.  These are all famous pairings throughout history, however, no duo might be as sexy or as satisfying as the combination of wine and chocolate.

Celebrate the union of this popular coupling on Wednesday, February 11, at The Boarding House. The Chocolate Covered Wine Affair will feature 6 chocolate dessert bites prepared by Pastry Chef Julia Fitting paired with 6 complementing wines selected by Master Sommelier Alpana Singh. This is a self-guided, go-at-your own pace, reception style tasting event, held from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. (event will end promptly at 8 pm). Guests are invited to mingle with fellow wine lovers to enjoy a social evening filled with sinful sweets and the world's oldest love potion in The Boarding House's glamorous Chandelier Bar. Tickets are $39 per person (inclusive of tax and gratuity).
