A trip through Africa with food and wine on Nov 23rd, 2009

Ambrosia is out in public again helping to raise funds for the local Elder care foundation.

Savouries, Sweets & Sips - an African Safari

Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort & Spa, Nov 23. 7pm

   
A culinary safari, indeed! Noting that winegrowing in South Africa celebrates its 350th birthday this year, more than a dozen of the Island’s top chefs have been challenged to create a fabulous appetizer, paired to a specific South African Wine and/or a sumptuous dessert using Amarula Cream as one of the ingredients.
  
The evening will kick off with a bubbly reception where you can meet the chefs and peruse their creations. Once seated in the ballroom, each chef or team will be introduced and say a few words about their creation, before you are treated to an educational tasting seminar featuring the wines of the evening. Then, you'll be set free to taste, pair and vote for your favourites.
   
Tickets are $60, with all proceeds to benefit the Greater Victoria Eldercare Foundation. For more information and to order tickets call 250-370-5664, right away.
