Fun Dinner Party Idea

Wine Pairing

Last night we had 35 people for dinner.  It was so much fun. 

 I just had to share a great way to entertain with delicious food, good wine and lots of laughs.

We have a winery and restaurant in Chicago called Cooper's Hawk. 

 I thought it would be fun to use them and serve 4 dishes paired with different wines.  

Party City had the perfect sized mini wine glasses for tasting.  Check it out below. 

I love my friend Stephanie for letting me borrow her chafing dishes.  

It kept everything warm and looking gorgeous.  

 This Cabernet Zinfandel blend was wonderful.  

 The salmon was so yummy! 

 A salad with blue cheese and caramelized walnuts is the BEST!

My boys couldn't stop eating the pretzel bread. 

 Wasabi Mashed Potatoes to go with the salmon.   

I couldn't stop eating them!!

I had to have a fun giveaway too.  

A lucky few went home with the wine they liked best. 

Try it yourself.  

You could find a winery near you or even a liquor store can suggest good food and wine pairings.
