Hello Foodies,It happened again - another successful event given by Tour de Forks with Centovini - one of our favorite restaurants. This event welcomed special guest, Alicia Lini, a fourth-generation winemaker whose family has been making Lambrusco since 1910. Alicia talked about her wines and the food of Emilia Romagna over a dinner created especially for the occasion by Chef Patti Jackson. Fork, Giuseppe Ricotta announced TDF's new tour to Emilia- Romagna - please visit www.tourdeforks.com for details. Then the eating began. Guest & Alicia Lini (right).
