Fillet-A-Fish and other Stories







Chef Michael Munoz, along with Chefs Danny Renteria and Luis Zepeda, put together a dynamic and interactive presentation for our members! After a brief overview on cutting techniques and knife sharpening, Chef pulled out three extremely fresh 15-pound salmons, and swiftly sliced, trimmed and boned the fish for members. Then it was time for everyone to don their gloves and aprons, and slice into the fish themselves!





Other stories...





Monday evening we were treated to the delightful and relaxing sounds of Paul Mehling, one of the top guitarists in the gypsy/swing style made famous by Django Rheinhardt. A number of members stopped by for a glass of wine, easy conversation, and the mellow sounds playing in the background. Many thanks to our member, Natasha Miller of Entire Productions for selecting a performer that exactly matches the tone and energy of the member's Bar. He would be perfect for weddings too!





Bacchus the Rascal...





will be updated next time! We are thrilled to be welcoming proprietor Jan Schrem and winemaker Shaun Richardson of Clos Pegase to the Club on Friday, August 21. We will be tasting a selection of estate and reserve wines paired with a lovely menu created by Chef Michael Munoz. Stay tuned - this sold-out event promises to be a convivial evening, with an amusing presentation of Bacchus the Rascal (The God of Wine throughout Art History).





See you at the Club!
