Frequently Asked Questions

1. I can't find a baby-sitter that night. Can I bring my kids? I promise they won't drink.

Unfortunately for legal and safety reasons, we cannot allow anyone below the age of 21 at the event.

 

2. I am a vegetarian. Will there be anything for me to eat?

YES! We have selected a vegetarian option for each course.

 

3. I have never been to a wine tasting before. How does it work?

A typical wine tasting event focuses only on the wines. This event is unique in that we are pairing wines with the flavors of Asian cuisines. A professional sommelier will be present to describe why the flavors of each course work well with certain wines. You can ask questions and learn more about the wines as well as the pairings during the event.

 

4. 7 courses sounds like a LOT of wine. Should I call a cab to take me home?

Each course will be paired with a quarter-pour of wine. There will be several buckets available at the event to pour out excess wine so that you can enjoy all courses. We encourage everyone to be aware of their alcohol tolerance and be responsible for their own safety.

 

5. Where do the proceeds of the evening go?

Your donation will also enable SAHELI to continue providing vital services to the Asian community and to victims of domestic violence. You can find out more about SAHELI's programs and services at http://www.saheli-austin.org
