I’m excited to be back in my home state for a wine dinner at Battello in Jersey City on Wednesday, October 30th at 6:30pm, co-hosted with my close friend, New Jersey restaurateur Cory Checket.
Battello, set on the waterfront with sweeping Manhattan skyline views, offers contemporary Italian, seafood-influenced cuisine in a setting that’s both industrial and luxurious with rustic elegance. Executive Chef Ryan DePersio, known for his work at Fascino and Kitchen Step, has created a fabulous five-course menu to complement our Judge Palmer wines. Book tickets at this link.
