Coming up Wednesday, Sept 2nd at Restaurant Tallent, easily one of my favorites restaurants because the scene, food, and people, Krissy and Dave Tallent, whom I affectionately refer to as “the Bad Ass Tallents”, will be opening their dining room for what looks to be an amazing dinner paired with wines from the remarkable portfolio of Eric Solomon Selections.
