This week there are all kinds of St. Patrick’s Day related festivities. And of course, some unrelated fun. Here are your options while I’m enjoying the sun of Mexico with my kids!
Wednesday, March 11, 6-9pm | Wine Maker’s Dinner with Peter Franus at Domacin Restaurant and WineBar
From the event page:
“Multi Course Dinner: If there’s a short way to describe Peter Franus and his winemaking, it’s this: He takes his craft seriously, but not himself. He is a son of Connecticut and a product of Berkeley. He’s a regular guy filled with Old World ethos, New World spirit, and with rock and roll. And he’s a searcher who could not avoid his life’s path. Wine called to Peter and he answered with his soul.”
