New Years Eve & Summer of the Arts Fundraiser Menu

We will be hosting a special New Year’s Eve Dinner & our monthly fundraiser for the Summer of the Arts during our normal business hours, 5-9pm.  A great oppurtunity to get some delicious organic food before heading out on the town or cozying up by the space heater and watching the ball drop with friends, family, and/or that special someone.  We will be offering a special 4 course dinner ($35) that has the option to be paired up with 5 specially selected wines to highlight the meal ($58), along with an a la carte menu as well (prices vary).

Menu:

  1. Sparkling Chardonnay-Pinot, Gruet; New Mexico 2006
  2. Black Bean & Corn Fritters  paired with Sylvaner, Gysler; Austria 2007
  3. Green Salad with Pea Shoots and Seasonal Vegetables  topped with a Cilantro Vinaigrette paired with Gruner Veltliner, Loimer “Lois”; Austria 2006
  4. Winter Vegetable Torte with a Red Wine Sauce paired with Cabernet Sauvignon, Honig; Napa Valley 2005
  5. Chocolate Truffle paired with Malbec, Wallace Winery; West Branch, IA 2005

Summer of the Arts, as I’m sure most of you know, is responsible for the Iowa Arts Festival, the Iowa City Jazz Festival, the Friday Night Concert Series, and Saturday Free Movie Night.  Join us to ring in the New Year and help support this great Iowa City non-profit.
