Bistro Versailles (or “Bistro V,” as it’s lovingly called) in Greenwich—one of our go-to across-the-border spots—is known for its special wine-paired dinners, and this month the theme is fall-inspired French cuisine.
Seats for the dinner on October 27 are going for $80 per person, and wines will be carefully paired with seasonal dishes crafted by Chef Cedric Lamouille. The dinner will start at 7 pm. Be sure to book in advance—seating is limited.
Here’s a peek at the menu:
