Gluten Free “Wine Dinner Down Under”

Virginia Beach, VA

 

Join us at Burtons Grill on Sunday, May 16th and Monday, May 17th  at 6:00PM as we explore gluten free cuisine and wines from “down under.”

Visit the Australian Empire from your seat as Executive Chef Chase Barton and owner of Navan Foods, Jennifer Elizondo, guide you through the wine dinner course by course and describe the various gluten free products in each selection. True to its name, each course profiles some of Australia’s signature ingredients such as barramundi, a fresh water fish native to Northern Australia, and macadamia nuts, an indigenous nut to the country. Pair your four-course adventure with hand-crafted wines that showcase the unique flavor profiles of the Australian vineyard.

At the price of $49.00 per person (tax and gratuity not included), this intimate experience will please any palate, gluten intolerant or not! (Please see menu below)
 

First Course

Thai Chicken Spring Rolls

Tender chicken breast in a ginger-soy marinade wrapped with cilantro, carrots, and Thai chilis in a rice paper wrapper. Served with a sweet Thai dipping sauce. 

Wine: St Hallett  Eden Valley Riesling 2008

Dry, but soft in texture, with ripe pear, melon and tart tangerine flavors that don't quit as the tangy finish sails on.
 

Second Course

Pan Seared Barramundi

Served over a bed of jasmine rice and topped with roasted cherry tomatoes, asparagus, and capers tossed in a citrus-chive vinaigrette. 

Wine: St. Hallett Poacher Blend 2007

Blended from Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling picked in the cool of the night. It is a crisp, clean wine that is an easy drinking delight. Full flavored with lifted tropical, lime and citrus flavors.
 

Third Course

Macadamia Nut Crusted Lamb

A half rack of New Zealand lamb grilled and finished with a macadamia nut and gluten-free bread crumb encrustment, served with roasted creamer potatoes, haricot verts, and a mint salsa verde.

Wine: St Hallett Faith Shiraz 2007

The delicious red fruits of the nose continue onto the palate, combing with hints of milk chocolate and spice notes. It offers a fruit-driven juicy front palate, followed by an even, textural experience, with smooth and supple tannins.

Dessert

Duo of Chocolate Cheesecake &

 Strawberry Butter Cream Petit Fours
