The Great Wine Choice Dinner at Cafe Rabelais

This or that?

That was the question last night at Café Rabelais in Rice Village for their “The Great Wine Choice” wine dinner. Guests had the opportunity to pick their preference of wines with each course. This was an interesting spin on the typical wine dinner.

The restaurant sold out the event. The style of the dinner was for guests to have their own private group tables with an introduction of each of the wines to be considered with each course made to the full room. Owner, Christophe Paul was the master of ceremonies for the evening.

The dinner was excellent and the wine comparison and conversation was quite interesting. Café Rabelais has been a Houston tradition for French cuisine since 2000. The laid back atmosphere and extensive French wine list has made it city favorite for almost a quarter of a century.

In the August issue of Galveston Monthly magazine, I introduce these wines to my readers.
