Dear Fellow Members,
This year's President's Dinner will be a reprise of the Alba White Truffle Dinner we did two years ago at L'Opera. As truffle prices seem to be a bit more "reasonable" this year, I thought it would be good to take advantage and have another edition of one of the most memorable dinners we had in recent years. Paolo Nesi of L'Opera will go to Italy later this month to personally select the truffles and bring them just in time for the dinner so that we have the best ingredients as fresh as possible.
The menu is as follows:
2 Uova al tegamino, asparagi e tartufo di Alba aromatizzati 48 ore
2 fresh and 48 hours white truffle scented eggs, asparagus, parmesan and Alba’s white truffles
Duval-Leroy Femme de Champagne Grand Cru 2000
