Description

McCormick & Kuleto’s Seafood Restaurant (in San Francisco in Ghirardelli Square/(415) 929-1730) and Spenger’s Fresh Fish Grotto (in Berkeley at 1919 Fourth Street/(510) 845-7771) are kicking off the new year by bringing new flavors to their menus…straight from New Zealand! From seafood dishes and a grass-fed beef filet, to dessert and libations, diners will be able to explore the flavors of New Zealand from January 6 through February 27.

Menu items include Greenshell™ Mussel Fritters served with a Cilantro-Roasted Garlic Pesto; New Zealand Shellfish Stew featuring Greenshell™ Mussels, Scallops, Shrimp and Clams in a Riesling Cream Broth and served in a Sourdough Bread Bowl; King Salmon from Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand, grilled and topped with a Caramelized Apple-Sauvignon Blanc Reduction; New Zealand Grass-Fed Filet Mignon served Wellington Style with a Kiwi Blue Cheese-Onion Tart; and traditional Pavlova, New Zealand’s national dessert of light, sweet meringue with Meyer Lemon Curd and Kiwi Puree.

The restaurants are also featuring Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc and The Crossing Pinot Noir, two distinctive food-friendly wines from New Zealand. In addition, inspired by New Zealand’s iconic fruit, kiwis are a featured bar menu item with two new cocktails, the Kiwi Meringue Pie (fresh kiwi muddled with Stoli Vanil, Monin Kiwi, simple syrup and fresh-squeezed lemon juice, topped with a delicious handmade kiwi whipped cream) and the Kiwi Quencher (fresh kiwi and strawberries, Cruzan Aged Rum, Monin Kiwi and fresh-squeezed lemon juice topped with lemon-lime soda served over ice).

Guests also have a chance to win a trip for two to New Zealand, provided by Air New Zealand and New Zealand Trade & Enterprise. The trip consists of round-trip air transportation for two to Auckland, New Zealand and six nights hotel accommodations.
