B&B Ristorante's Dining Tour of Italy Arrives in Campania

If it's summer and a Thursday, it's time to head to B&B Ristorante for their weekly special and intimate dining experiences, this time celebrating the food and drink of Southern Italy. Tonight, the team is inspired by Campania, home to Naples, Pompeii and ideal farming conditions.

Starting at 7 p.m. guests will receive four courses, hear chefs share their thoughts on the creations and their visits to Campania and wine director Kirk Peterson will be liberally pouring his chosen pairings for each dish.

Aug 7 The Flavors of Campania Menu:
Insalata Caprese with Three Cheeses: Bufala Mozzarella DOC, Burrata, and Ricotta
Ravioli alla Napolitana with Ricotta Affumicata
Saltimboca alla Sorrentina with Caciocavallo
Vanilla Panna Cotta with Strawberries and Aceto Manadori

Tickets are available from B&B's Eventbrite page and cost $135.10 per person, plus ticket fee, including the wine pairings.

On August 14, make plans for the Heirloom Tomato Dinner with Jason Neve and Chris Vaughn as they share the taste spectrum from "Brandywines to Green Zebras" and try an "eclectic mix of wines sourced from the various premier regions of Italy. "

Tomato "Tartare" with Blue Crab and Tomato "Consommé"
Lasagna all Genovese with Oven Roasted Flamme Tomato
Pork Belly with Balsamic-Tomato Ketchup, Fried Green Tomato and Tomato Jam

And on August 28, the series heads much closer to home with local farmers Laura Bledsoe of Quail Hollow Farm and Mark Rueben of Gilcrease Orchard discussing farming in the desert and bring their freshest ingredients for a curated menu accented by sustainable and organic wines.
