I even love the n-a-m-e of these food-and-wine events at Land’s End Resort in Homer. “Uncorked”. HA! POP! I can hear the cork right now! And yes, this is the view out on the “beach” in front of the dining room!
Of course, the wine is a big part of each event at Land’s End. But Chef Maggie Burns really wants to give you a “Taste of Spring” for the last “Uncorked” dinner for the season on May 8. Remember: Land’s End only hosts these special dinners during the “off” season from October to May. So make plans to fly on Era Aviation. Don’t be late for supper!
