Zenato Wine Dinner @ Piattini Wine Cafe, 226 Newbury Street, Boston, MA

I've attended a couple of wine dinners at Piattini, which you can read about here and here, and they are always amazing.  You can also read my interview and food review with Owner/Menu Director Josephine Oliviero Megwa, here.

It promises to be another intimate evening with spectacular Italian eats and guided (but not stuffy) wine tasting and pairing.
