Get ready to sample some of the best culinary delights that the Tri-Valley has to offer.
The fourth annual Taste Tri-Valley Restaurant Week, which begins next weekend, aims to bring “10 delicious days of special events, unique menu offerings and exclusive deals to local restaurants and wineries,” according to organizers with Visit Tri-Valley.
So far more than 50 venues are on the participant list across Pleasanton, Livermore, Danville, Dublin and City Center Bishop Ranch in San Ramon – and Visit Tri-Valley says more could be added before the event kicks off.
The festivities actually start one day early, for those with tickets to the opening night dinner and reception on Thursday (Feb. 22) at LB Steak in San Ramon.
Regional chefs Francis Hogan from Sabio on Main, Roland Passot and Romero Miraflore from LB Steak, Daniel Massie from Wente Vineyards and Rodney Worth from The Peasant and the Pear will join forces for the one night only “to craft an amazing four-course tasting menu – each creating their take on a classic steakhouse favorite, accompanied by Wente wines,” organizers said.
Then during the heart of Restaurant Week, which runs from next Friday (Feb. 23) through the following Sunday (March 3), all of the participating restaurants, breweries and wineries up and down the valley will present special menus and other offerings for patrons.
Special events on the Restaurant Week schedule are the Livermore Wine Trolley’s Taste of the Tri-Valley Food Tour on Feb. 27 and Feb. 29, the “Beer vs. Wine Dinner” at BottleTaps in Pleasanton on Feb. 28, “Wine & Cheese Pairing” at Page Mill Winery in Livermore and “Meet the Winemakers” with James Foster and Brett Fikse at Concannon Vineyard in Livermore on March 3.
The closer will be the “Fizz, Food & Fun” brunch on March 3 at Las Positas Vineyards in Livermore, complete with a mimosa bar, live music and seated brunch with sparkling wine pairing. A portion of the ticket proceeds for the closing brunch (as well as the Chef Collaboration Kick-off Dinner on Feb. 22) will benefit local nonprofit Sunflower Hill.
Organizers encourage patrons to check in at every venue they visit during Restaurant Week via the event’s mobile pass, and each log-in will count as an entry toward the special giveaway drawing with a prize valued at over $800, including a two-night stay at a local hotel, two-day e-bike rental, two tickets to the Blackhawk Museum and gift certificates to local restaurants and wineries.
Spearheaded by Visit Tri-Valley, Restaurant Week is a partnership among the municipalities and chambers of commerce of Pleasanton, Livermore, Dublin and Danville, along with City Center Bishop Ranch in San Ramon and presenting sponsor Fremont Bank. To learn more, go to visittrivalley.com.
