Last week, we announced that Fork was going to be hosting the next Restaurant Club “All About Wine” dinner on October 5. The good news? There are still a few tickets left for the event.

And as promised, we now have a menu and wine pairing information for the dinner as well. You know, just to make things a little bit more tempting.
