Join Oloroso for the Lustau Sherry Dinner during International Sherry Week. Experience an exquisite pairing of sherry and Spanish tapas.
Oloroso, the distinguished beacon of Spanish cuisine in Center City Philadelphia, is delighted to extend an invitation to the exclusive Lustau Sherry Dinner. In conjunction with International Sherry Week’s 10th anniversary, this unique culinary event is scheduled for one illustrious evening on Thursday, November 9, with a seating at 6:30 pm.
This elaborate four-course tasting dinner, priced at $100 per person, is a tribute to the art of sherry, thoughtfully curated by Oloroso’s sommelier, Gordana Kostovski, and enhanced by the esteemed presence of Mario Muñoz González from Lustau.
The experience unfolds with an inviting array of cheeses and charcuterie, complemented by the sweet touch of membrillo, toasted almonds, and grapes. This introduction sets the stage for a culinary crescendo, leading into delicate chanterelles paired with red kuri squash, bosc pear, and a luxurious amontillado hollandaise foam that whispers the secrets of autumn.
As the evening progresses, the wood oven’s glow heralds the arrival of the roasted lamb shoulder, its rich flavors dancing with farro, chocolate, and pomegranate—a bold alliance of taste and texture. The finale, a Basque cheesecake adorned with dates and Pedro Ximénez, is a dessert that promises to linger on the palate as a sweet remembrance of the night’s sherry symphony.
During the Lustau Sherry Dinner, guests will not only feast upon Jason Peabody’s culinary artistry but will also be led through the nuanced world of sherry by experts. The collaboration between Oloroso and Lustau—where the latter has been lauded for its excellence in wine-making, having been awarded the prestigious Len Evans Trophy twice—is a testament to the timeless allure of sherry.
Oloroso’s beverage program focuses on authentic sherry pairings, with a varied selection of vermouth, cocktails, beers, and ciders to engage every palate.
Attending the Lustau Sherry Dinner promises a unique experience, where every course is a conversation, every glass is a narrative, and every moment is an unforgettable memory. Don’t wait to secure your reservation through RESY, as spaces are limited and in high demand. I strongly urge you to book your table now, as experiences like this are as rare as the sherries themselves.
