WINTERLICIOUS 2012 - WINTERLICIOUS 2012
Presented by American Express
and the Pegasus Hospitality Group:

DECANTING THE CASTLE - MYTHS UNCORKED
“A Guided Tour through Your Plate and Palate.”

AT CASA LOMA
7:00 PM Doors Open
8:00 PM Sharp Dinner
(please be prompt for this event as everyone is starting dinner at the same time.)

As part of Winterlicious 2012, the Pegasus Hospitality Group takes our guests through a guided tour of their plate and palate. Our goal is to “Uncork” the myths behind how and why you pair wines with cuisine when dining. The goal is to take the rules out of wine pairing and show the many different ways of how a pairing normally not considered viable, can often be interesting and good.

This is a fun, interactive and communal dining experience at Casa Loma, which will guide guests through the discovery of wine pairing. Guests will ultimately walk away realizing that they each have a discerning palate, and that it will probably differ from the person sitting next to them, and that’s ok, in fact, that is the point. We plan to uncork the myths behind the belief of having to pair only certain wines with certain foods. The “tour” of your plate and flights of wine presented at each course will introduce the guest to the “complimentary contradictions” of wine and cuisine. With a preset locally produced 4 course menu, and meticulously thought out local wine flights,(and a couple of surprise beverages thrown in), each guest will begin to strategically pair wines with foods. We will demonstrate that the flavours of the foods can both contradict and compliment the wine selections, and both can be good. Taking a sweet Reisling and pairing it with something salty, can be entirely appealing, as will pairing it with the sweetness of a rich dessert. In the end, it will be up to the guest to navigate which combinations are most appealing, knowing that there is no right or wrong and thereby dispelling the myths of wine pairing.

We believe that the days of white wine with fish and red wine with meat have disappeared. There is of course a fine art to pairing wine which is to be respected; however our goal here is to attract those who are not sommeliers, to have an experience that will allow them to discover that “complimentary contradictions” can make sense. In the end it’s up to you. We are even going to throw in a few "discovery" beverages into the flights, some cool unexpected pairings, just to get you thinking and tasting outside the box. You would never think that these "discovery" products are produced in Ontario.

The atmosphere will be fun and interactive; guests will be sitting at tables of 6, as they gather on a journey that will end in perhaps discovering one’s palate in a way you never thought possible.
The only rules are; taste the wine and the food, if you like it, it’s good. If you don’t know the difference between a Cabernet and a Pinot Noir, it really doesn’t matter, what matters in the end is that wine and food always tastes better when shared with others.

The four course menu will be a wholesome, rustic, gourmet meal – another contradiction in terms!

MENU FOR THE EVENING:

Each Course Accompanied by a Flight of Wine and Discovery Beverage (An unexpected pairing)

1st Course
Ontario Root Cellar Sunchoke and Roasted Shallot Soup, Bondinettes a Cote

2nd Course
Slow Roasted Baked Black Cod on Fresh and Winter Greens, Lake Huron Smoked White Fish Dressing

3rd Course
Venison Tenderloin Stuffed with Duck Rillettes, Caramelized Fennel and Parsnip Gratin, Ice Wine Demi Glace

4th Course
- Raw Chocolate Organic Lava
- A Shot of Apricot Tapioca
- Toronto Citrus Goat Cheesecake Lolli

And once this tour is over, gather your handsets and go on a self guided tour of Canada’s most majestic castle, Casa Loma.

Cash Bar available.

THE CHOCOLATE BALL - COCOA CARNAVALE
Produced by JCO Communications

Attention Chocolate Lovers - Assemble to experience one of the most elegant events held in Toronto, to benefit Prostate and Breast Cancer Initiatives.

Imagine walking into one of Toronto’s historic landmarks, filled with the distinct aroma of chocolate emanating from every direction.

Start off the evening with a visit to the Silent Auction gallery, followed by many chocolate samples. The first to tempt your taste buds are savoury food stations, presented and catered by some of Toronto’s top chefs and restaurants.

Once you have digested the savoury fare, treat yourself to decadent chocolate creations – from bars to truffles – available at several Chocolate Stations positioned throughout the venue.

Next, take a break and work off some of the calories by shuffling onto the dance floor. With Cocoa Carnival being the theme of this year’s Chocolate Ball, there will be no shortage of dance music. In between sets, prepare to be entertained by our signature floor shows, contests and prize draws.

If by this point you think you’ve experienced it all, think again. The night is far from over. If you have not yet had your fill of chocolate delights, visit our large decadent dessert station – ready for you to indulge once more.

So come dressed and ready to celebrate our version of Carnival – powered by Chocolate.

Help make a significant difference by being part of this unique Toronto event set to benefit our Prostate and Breast Cancer Initiatives.

THE PURPLE LUNCH FOR EPILEPSY - As part of our Weekly Faith, Hope and Charity Luncheon, Please join us as Palais Royale and Margaret Maye Present:

THE PURPLE LUNCH FOR EPILEPSY
12:00 noon – 3:00pm
at the PALAIS ROYALE BALLROOM

March is Epilepsy Awareness Month.
Join us for a beautiful buffet luncheon
with proceeds going toward
Epilepsy Cure Initiatives
$15.00 per person
Special Musical Performances by
Margaret Maye – mezzo-soprano and others
Jewelry & more items for sale

The PURPLE LUNCH
On March 26, people from around the globe are asked to wear purple and spread the word about epilepsy. The CN Tower in Toronto, Niagara Falls will illuminate their buildings in purple to showcase their support.
Why purple?
Lavender is the international colour and flower for epilepsy.Lavender is a solitude flower, and to those living with epilepsy it symbolizes isolation and seclusion. They often are lonely and
withdrawn from society for fear of stigma and discrimination. Did you know 1 in 100 students have epilepsy?
Each day, an average of 42 Canadians learn that they have epilepsy and about 60% of new patients are young children and senior citizens.
Epilepsy affects about 60 million people worldwide.
That's more than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and Parkinson's disease combined.
EPILEPSY CURE INITIATIVE (ECI)is a not for profit incorporated organization founded by parents of a child with uncontrolled seizures, inspired by life experiences and fuelled by a burning desire to make a positive difference for people with epilepsy here and now. ECI is dedicated to creating awareness and
understanding of epilepsy, bringing an end to misconceptions and fear of the disorder, as well as to discrimination against people with
epilepsy. ECI is also dedicated to promoting ketogenic diet therapies,funding epilepsy research, and educating the public about the urgent
need for increased efforts in epilepsy research to advance new treatments that offer better seizure control and fewer side effects. As well, ECI is advocating for a more effective and improved formalized epilepsy care system being brought to Canada.
