Le Colonial Hosts Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel Vineyard Wine Paired Dinner on August 3
Le Colonial in San Francisco will host a Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel Vineyard wine dinner on Thursday, August 3 from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. priced at $55.00 for a five-course prix fixe menu with the option of also ordering paired wines by the glass for an additional $44.00. All prices are per person and exclude tax, San Francisco mandate fee and gratuity. Far Niente's President and CEO Larry Maguire will be in attendance. The restaurant's regular a la carte offerings will also be available that evening. Reservations are required and can be obtained via http://www.lecolonialsf.com/wdrs.
Executive Chef Jean-Paul Peluffo will prepare Goi Ca Thu (ahi tuna tartare with sesame passion fruit vinaigrette) paired with a Chardonnay, En Route, Russian River ‘14; Cha Cua (crispy coconut crusted Dungeness crab cakes with cilantro basil aioli) with a Chardonnay, Far Niente “Family Select” Napa ‘15; Thit Kho Chien (twice cooked pork belly with quail egg and mustard sweet chili sauce) with a Pinot Noir, En Route, Russian River ‘14; Bo Luc Lac (wok seared filet mignon cubes with sweet-savory soy and crispy lotus chips) with a Cabernet Sauvignon, Nickel & Nickel “Branding Iron” Napa ‘14; and a flourless Chocolate Cake with peanuts, caramel sauce and chocolate peanut butter ice cream with a Dolce, Far Niente, Napa ‘11.
Chef Peluffo was born in Nice and has worked at distinguished restaurants and for premier culinary-related businesses in locations as diverse as France, Italy, Greece, Mexico, Guinea and the Ivory Coast, plus the American cities of Miami and Pasadena. In 2001, he orchestrated culinary operations for the G8 Summit in Genoa, creating custom meals for eight Heads of State. In the Bay Area, for nearly a decade he was the Executive Chef at Le Bistro, a venue loved by both critics and customers. Peluffo holds three Master's degrees including ones in Culinary Arts and Pastry & Chocolate and he has excelled in numerous Food Network show competitions such as Guy’s Grocery Games (winner) and Cutthroat Kitchen (two-time Super Championship winner).
Complementing the food, the Le Colonial international wine list has more than 200 selections, of which about 20 are available by the glass. The list is comprised of French and domestic vintages, plus wines from Chile, Argentina, New Zealand and elsewhere. The full bar’s cocktail menu showcases classic, contemporary and original libations.
The atmosphere at Le Colonial evokes the elegance of Vietnam in the 1920’s. From the mosaic-like tile flooring, the vaulted pressed-tin ceiling, the shuttered windows, the plush rattan furniture, and the tropical plants, all accented by the glow of candlelight, the restaurant feels as if it was transported here from many generations ago and 10,000 miles away. Vintage black and white photographs of life at the turn of the century adorn the walls, while ceiling fans gently stir the air. In addition to the intimate main dining area, the upstairs bar and lounge at Le Colonial provides a relaxed salon ambiance with its faded oriental rugs, decorative bamboo birdcages, low wood tables and comfortable couches. The lounge is appropriate for tea, cocktails, appetizers or casual dining.
Le Colonial is located at 20 Cosmo Place between Sutter and Post and Jones and Taylor. The restaurant is open nightly for dinner, Sunday through Wednesday from 5:30 to 10:00 p.m. and Thursday to Saturday, 5:30 to 11:00 p.m. Valet parking is available.
