________________
Though many of us are not “true” descendants of the Emerald Isle, we do our best each-and-every March 17th to celebrate as though green blood has always been flowing through our veins. From cheering on the BIGGEST LITTLE ST. PATTY’S DAY PARADE that runs through Old Town (generally 5:17pm – will confirm), tipping back a Guinness or Harps, to our classic St Patty’s Prix Fixe, you can be sure to “feel the spirit” at Carpe Vino!
Once again, Chef Tim Dube will be offering a St. Patrick’s Day $40 Three Course Prix-Fixe both in the restaurant and wine bar. So without further ado…
