Fall Wine Dinners-Great Food with Great Wine

Time for some great wine and food!  TBox is hosting two great winery in Nov/Dec and we are taking reservations for the dinners now.  Our first event is coming quick; Nov. 4 Chef Scott is teaming with a representative from Opolo Vineyards (Paso Robles, CA) with the help of one of our favorite distributors, Quail Distributing.  The dinner will include some past appetizers as you arrive and then a paired 4-course meal with discussions on the taste profiles and the wines

Our second dinner is on Dec. 8 and is with our friends from Valley of the Sun Fine Wines who are bringing Freemark Abbey with them to discuss their four varietals. Again Chef Scott will work with the winery to pair his great food to fit the profiles of the wines.

The cost is an all inclusive $85 per person. If you think both dinners sound great let us know and we will knock off $10 per dinner for you.  Call us soon!

Keep on Working

September ended with TBox's participation in the Take Action Tuesday campaign.  Downtown Flagstaff businesses banned together to donate a portion of the proceeds from that Tuesday night to a great cause; Camp Colton (http://www.friendsofcampcolton.com/).  Camp Colton provides a week-long camp for every public school 6th grader and what a great time of the year to be outside.  Starting in October (today as a matter of fact) we are premiering our "Bar Side Bites" special.  From 5 pm to 7 pm (Mon-Thurs) in our bar side dining room we will be offering a tapas trilogy from Chef Scott along with your choice of a draft beer, select glass of wine or house-derived cocktail for $7.00.  So come on in for a quick after work bite and a drink.  We are also exploring some great food events, wine dinners, guest chef dates, etc. so stay tuned.


If you are interested in Chef's tehniques, check out his October 14 cooking class at the Seasoned Kitchen in Downtown Flagstaff (http://www.seasonedkitchenaz.com/).  His topic will be "Pork, Pork, Pork" one of the favorite staples here at TBox.  Seating is limited so contact Tony at the Seasoned Kitchen ASAP at 928.213.5942.

With fall comes the opportunity to showcase new food profiles, keep in touch for Pheasant Stuffed Egg Noodles, Braised Rabbit, Great Lakes Walleye, and House-Smoked Pastrami.  At TBox, Chef Scott and I are living by the motto that if we keep working to make the restaurant constantly unique and fun, we will see alot more of you!  Come on in soon.
