If you’ve seen my reviews, you know that Bacco Ristorante is one of my favorite places to dine in Metro Detroit. On Friday, March 26, Bacco will host an evening highlighting spectacular Italian wines in its luxurious, private Saletta banquet facility. From appetizers to dessert, each course will be specifically paired with a wonderful Italian wine.
The event begins at 6:30 p.m. with a reception featuring passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by a five-course sit-down dinner at 7 p.m.
“Much thought went into pairing each course with the wines we wanted to highlight,” said Owner/Chef Luciano del Signore. “This will be an evening that will not only tantalize the palate but also the senses.”
The all-inclusive tickets are $170 per person and seating is limited. Reservations can be made by calling 248.356.6600.
