Coconut Shrimp Salad
Coconut breaded fried shrimp with seasonal Thai vegetables and a tamari Plum dressing
Pepi Pinto Grigo
Aromas of honeydew melon, red apple and faint orange blossom unite in harmony. On the palate, a smooth
creaminess and full body leads to a bracing, mineral, tangy finish.

Shitake Mushroom Cap
Baked Shitake mushroom with veal terrine, camembert cheese and Marsala wine
Cambria Katherine's Vineyard Chardonnay
“The 2005 vintage is bright with citrus, apple, peach, and vanilla aromas. Rich, mouth filling flavors of grapefruit, citrus blossom, white peach and sweet oak lead to a crisp finish with a lasting impression of spicy oak.”

Intermezzo
Champagne Sorbet

Chilean Sea Bass
seared Cast Iron Pan with sun dried tomatoes, fried leeks, caper lemon beurre blanc
Accompanied by Roasted garlic and red pepper basmati rice
La Crema Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
"The 2006 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir opens with engaging aromas of ripe, round cherry, floral notes, spicy clove and licorice. Cherry continues in the mouth, melding with rich plum, orange peel and tea leaves over a mouth-watering jamminess. Balanced acidity and firm tannins round out a long, lingering finish."

Roast Tenderloin of Venison and Ostrich
Shallot, port, veal reduction
Accompanied by baby carrot, golden beet, haricot vert and purple potato
Stonestreet Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
"Ruby-red. Suave and intensely aromatic, with lush cherry and cassis aromas underscored by gentle oak spice notes. Silky in texture, with sweet cherry compote and blackcurrant flavors, soft tannins and impressive power on the finish.
Sweet and impressively seamless cabernet." -

Dessert
Poached Pear and Almond Crepe topped with a light Cointreau sauce

Graham’s 10 Year Old Tawny Port
This 10 Year has a full, nutty bouquet, the classic Graham's richness and a soft lingering finish.
