Winery Chefs, Hong Kong and California Vintage

It’s my New Years resolution to keep up with the blog post. That being said, 2010 was an exciting year for Winery Chefs. We would like to thank our business partners for the support in these challenging times. One of our newest business partner is California Vintage, a wine bar concept opening 1-11-2011 in Hong Kong’s Wyndam Street District.  Its an all California wine bar featuring only wine and cuisine from the Golden State. Richard Haake designed the wine friendly menu which features many california classics such as cioppino, garlic fries, santa maria bbq and baja fish tacos. Many of the ingredients will be shipped directly from California.

The two month consulting project included multiple tasting paired some of the wines featured on the menu. Kenji Yuen, the Hong Kong chef  for California Vintage, spent three days of training in the Napa Valley at the Winery Chefs kitchen. Kenji and the  senior management team left for Hong Kong fired up with 20 recipes set for the opening day. Richard Haake will travel to Hong Kong to join up with team for the opening.. Winery Chefs continues to develop successful menus and recipes designed to pair well with wine.

Now’s the time to start planning for your 2011 wine and food programs, contact richard@winerychefs.com to set up an appointment.
