TAPAS & WINE WEDNESDAY AT CAPRICCIO IS HERE TO STAY!
In last week's newsletter I thought of trying something new. I thought that offering any of our tapas for $5 and our house wines for $5 a glass would be a great deal. But I thought only a few people would take us up on it. How wrong I was!!
When a couple of people (bartender, hostess, etc.) called to say they couldn't come to work (Murphy's Law at work) I didn't think much of it because Wednesday is usually a slow night. Well, we were packed and VERY short handed. Thank God we have many customer/friends and they are all very supportive of our restaurants and are super nice people. We had some that helped carry wine orders to other tables; some at the bar pouring wine for others. I even had an offer from our good friend Deborah Finlay to stand as a hostess at the door!!! This made me feel really good but didn't dissipate my concern that we should've been better prepared.
 
After several requests that we should continue doing this, I decided to keep our Tapas & Wine Wednesday at least for the rest of the year. And I promise that we will be prepared!
 
Thanks so much for all your support and hope to see you at Capriccio and/or Mezzanotte soon.

TENUTA VITANZA WINEMAKERS VISITED MEZZANOTTE
We had an "unscheduled" wine dinner last Thursday at Mezzanotte with our friends from Tenuta Vitanza in Montalcino, Tuscany.  Rosalba Vitanza, her husband Guido and their daughter Emma were among our guests for the night. We all had the opportunity to try 5 wonderful wines, including a superb 2004 Brunello di Montalcino.
They will be back to visit us next year - I will let you know so that you can join us then.
