A take-away Swine and Dine with Sabor – June 4, 2020

SABOR’S CHEF LINO WILL SERVE A SPECIAL SWINE AND DINE TO GO ON THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 2020.

On Thursday, June 4, 2020, Sabor’s Chef Lino will be serving up our first ever take-away Swine and Dine dinner. Since the start of the COVID pandemic, Sabor has closed their doors for in-room dining. Thankfully, chef Lino has been feeding his regular’s cravings with takeaway dinner options including their famous risotto, piri-piri prawns, and fish and chips. We know he has a serious passion for pork, so it was time to for Edmonton to get a Sabor pork fix.

For his first ever Swine and Dine, Chef Lino will be serving a Sabor To Go family style Swine and Dine dinner for 2 for $70 + GST. Each order includes a complimentary Alberta Pork recipe book. Call 780.757.1114 to pre-order. Please note Sabor is closed on Monday so any messages will be responded to starting Tuesday afternoon. 

EVERY SABOR SWINE & DINE TO GO WILL INCLUDE A COMPLIMENTARY
ALBERTA PORK COOK BOOK.

Bacon Day #3 Winner – Bacon Wrapped Dates

Time to announce our next winner headed to Lux’s 4th Annual Bacon Day Dinner on Saturday August 31. This simple bacon appetizer is a Spanish-inspired recipe from Michael. With only three ingredients I whipped this sweet and savoury treat up in 15 minutes using Irving Farms fabulous dry-cured side bacon.

Congrats to Michael who will be joining me for a three-course family-style dinner on Saturday. The chefs at Lux would love to see this year’s Bacon Day Dinner sell out and raise as much money as possible for YESS; if you are in town buy yourself a ticket and join me for what is sure to be a fine-swine dinner. Tickets still available at https://baconday2013.eventbrite.ca/

 

Bacon Wrapped Dates

Ingredients

16 pitted dates

8 pieces of Irving Farms Bacon, cut in half

8 tsp goat cheese

 

Directions

  1. Preheat over to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  2. Place ½ tsp of goat cheese in the date; it is ok to have some of the cheese showing.
  3. Wrap each date with half a bacon slice and lay the overlapping bacon end side down on the baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 5 minutes, flip over and bake for 5 minutes more. Remove from oven allowing to cool slightly as cheese will be very hot. Best served warm – enjoy!
