September 26, 2019 six lucky couples enjoyed a historic and epic French Bourgogne dinner hosted by yours truly in celebration of our recent epic trip to France. This particular Bourgogne dinner was conceived over 5 years ago and we were finally able to serve it with the best French Bourgogne wines directly imported to Amelia Island with the help of our agents in France. We celebrated all things French during our recent trip with fellow members of the prestigious Confrerie de la Chaine des Rotisseurs headquartered in Paris, France as well as a couple of members of the the prestigious French Bourgogne wine brotherhood of Confrerie de Chavliers du Tastevin headquartered at the Chateau de Clos du Vougeot in Bourgogne which we aspire to be eventual members of one day in addition to La Chaine. Dinner was prepared by Amelia Island Chef Xylina Green and her staff who we highly recommend who is the new manager and chef of the new restaurant opening next to Harris Teeter, Bantam & Biddy, in November.
