Featured wine of the month

We are proud to announce our restaurant Paradiso has been selected

to serve Cakebread wines. These wines are on allocation so be

sure to come in soon!

2005 could well prove to be among California’s most exceptional

vintages. Due to the length of the growing season, our Chardonnay

grapes enjoyed an exceptionally long hang time on the vine,

developing impressively concentrated flavors at lower sugar

levels. The result is a rich, impeccably balanced wine of

great depth, length and focus.

Lamb Kabobs

Ingredients:

  * Bamboo skewers soaked in water

  * Leg of lamb

  * 1 red bell pepper

  * 1 green bell pepper

  * 1 red onion

  * A few button mushrooms

  * Italian dressing for marinade

Preparation: Start by de-boning the leg of lamb, then cut into 1 inch cubes. Place them in a pan and cover them with the Italian dressing and let marinate for about 1 hour. Next cut the bell peppers and onion into 1 inch cubes and set aside until the lamb has finished marinating. Place the bell pepper, lamb, onion and mushrooms on the skewer, alternating them for color and presentation. There should be three to four pieces of lamb per skewer. Place them on the BBQ and char-broil until they are cooked to your preference. For them to be really tender, slow roast them and cook them to about medium. They are that simple to prepare and are a wonderful item for a BBQ party. Try them for yourself and enjoy!
