Reader support matters more than ever
We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
Opus, at 2575 West Main Street in Littleton, has teamed up with the Infinite Monkey Theorem to produce a different sort of wine dinner tonight: The menu has been constructed to mirror common characteristics of many wines.
Here’s a taste of the courses:
Reception: Artisanal cheeses, smoked salmon asparagus roulades, foie gras mousse and spiced tuna tamarind “forks” paired with Infinite Monkey Theorem’s 2008 chardonnay.
Earth course: Kobe beef short rib with parsnip puree, truffle and king oyster mushroom paired with Infinite Monkey Theorem’s 2008 Malbec.
Oak course: Smoke-seared sea scallops with oyster bacon risotto and fennel paired with Infinite Monkey Theorem’s 2009 sauvignon blanc/semillion.
Spice course: Near East spiced duck breast with savoy cabbage, duck confit lentils and syrah blackberry jus paired with Infinite Monkey Theorem’s 2008 Syrah.
Fruit course: Chocolate cherry pie with vanilla bean ice cream and marshmallow topping.
The meal costs $65 and starts at 6:30 p.m.; call 303-703-6787 or visit www.opusdine.com.
