Authentic Italian
Meal with Wines
DCCAdent EVENING...
A unique multi course dinner, paired with wines, is Chef Uwe
Knebelsberger’s strong suit. “Mr. K” has each year prepared the
meal for the DCCAdent Evening, exceeding expectations with his culinary
talents. This year’s event is Friday, October 7 at the Greenville
Golf Course.
Mr. K was born in Vienna, Austria, where his family owned a popular
restaurant. He has been in the business since he was 13 years old. He
was hired in 1972 by Max Comisar to run the King Cole Restaurant in
Dayton and worked for the Comisar family for over 20 years, eventually
overseeing 7 of their restaurants. Additionally, he owned Waldo
Pepper’s Restaurant in Vandalia. After spending his professional
life in the food business, hiring a number of remarkable French chefs,
he decided to become Chef at the Greenville Golf Course, formerly the
Greenville Country Club, 17 years ago.
According to Chef Uwe, “The annual DCCA wine tasting dinner has always
been a popular event at the Greenville Golf Course. It gives you the
opportunity to taste wines from around the world paired with food
matching the wine’s origin. This year’s event focuses on Italy.”
He went on to say, “Having lived in Europe for many years, I have had
countless opportunities to experience Italian “home cooking”. This
year’s dinner features dishes your Italian grandma would fix for her
family.”
“From Zucchini Fritters to a Seafood Gondola appetizer to Poached
Bass Florentine and a Beef Braciole, all the way to home made Chocolate
Gelato, this Italian dinner is not to be missed,” he added.
The authentic Italian dinner will be paired with wines from Castello
Banfi, Italy. Mr. K uses those wines in the preparation of some
courses as well. The main dish, the Beef Braciole, is served with
Potato Gnocchi and a Chianti Sauce made from the Chianti Superiore wine
that it will be paired with.
Also that evening, there will be an auction for 4 tickets to the
November 19 OSU vs. Penn State game graciously donated by State
Representative Jim & Sharon Buchy. Music will be
provided by Fun House Mirrors, Columbus.
Tickets for $70.00, include dinner, wine, entertainment, tax and
tip. Tickets are available at the DCCA office at 547-0908 or at
the Greenville Golf Course. As space is limited, the ticket
purchase deadline is September 30.
New this year to the DCCAdent Evening will be the opportunity for an
optional tasting of the premium wines offered by Banfi. This
unique experience will be available during appetizers for $20 for four
pours.
