One of my favorite eateries,
Stoney River Legendary Steaks in Cool Springs, will host a fab St. Francis Wine Dinner Monday, Aug. 24 at 6:30 p.m. The event features a four-course gourmet meal and accompanying wines.
Not only are the food and wines fabulous, so is the price: $55 per person.
The meal begins with Coconut Chicken Curry Bisque with toasted coconut herb crouton paired with St. Francis Chardonnay. Next up is Crab Stuffed Jumbo Shrimp with New Orleans style dirty rice, paired with St. Francis Cabernet Sauvignon. The entrée is a char grilled filet with a green peppercorn demi-glaze served with Southern ratatouille, paired with St. Francis “Old Vines” Zinfandel. For dessert, hand-churned honey ice cream, poached pear wedges drizzled with a pretzel caramel sauce; this is paired with Chandon Brut Classic.
Stoney River pours nice size servings of a variety of wines with each course. The evening is elegant without being fussy. Casual attire is fine. Reservations for the wine dinner are required; seating is limited.
Stoney River Legendary Steaks, a classic American Steak House, is located at 1726 Galleria Boulevard in Cool Springs. For wine dinner inquiries or reservations, call (615) 778-0230 or visit
