We'll begin by making a bruschetta topped with fresh mozzarella cheese, skinned roma tomatoes and sweet roasted bell pepper sprinkled with fresh basil and drizzled with olive oil. Next, you’ll prepare chicken marsala with fresh sautéed mushrooms in a sweet marsala butter sauce. We’ll see how that measures up against chicken limone, topped with a chardonnay, lemon, and butter sauce with capers. Both entrees are paired with spaghetti aglio olio and tender garden vegetables tossed with olive oil, garlic, and Romano cheese. We'll finish with diplomatico, a divine combination of rum and espresso-soaked pound cake, rich chocolate mouse and fresh whipped cream.
