Fall in Love with These 4 Fine Dining Meals and Drinks

 The leaves have fallen, the cold has started to set in, and it’s clear that we’re well on our way to winter. Along with getting outside (or staying inside where it’s warm), sampling new flavors is a superb way to embrace the new season. If you have reservations this weekend or just want to try something new at home, here are a few meals and drinks to fall in love with this season.

Fine Dining Boise

Dive Into a Seasonal Soup

The colder weather calls for something hot, comforting, and seasonal. After all, you can’t get much better than a bowl of delicious soup on a cold winter’s day. The best restaurants are already busy sourcing seasonal ingredients for their winter soup lineup. Whether you’re ordering soup before your entrée or the soup is the star of the show, it’s always a perfect time for a bowl during the cold season. If you’re looking for a specific recommendation, see if the restaurant offers a butternut squash soup. It’s essentially the tastes of the fall and winter seasons in a bowl.

It’s Beginning to Feel a Lot Like Red Wine Season

The days of sipping a sweet white wine on the patio might be over, but there’s still plenty to look forward to if you’re a wine lover. Winter season is red wine season for most, and the best fine dining Boise restaurants will offer an extensive selection of wines to choose from. While you can’t go wrong with any red wine this season, try a Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, or Nebbiolo. Pair it with the next entry on this list, and you have the perfect hearty winter dining experience.

You Can’t Go Wrong with Prime Rib

While we might not be in the backyard grilling steaks anymore, beef is still a staple during the cold season. Specifically, you’ll find that the best steakhouse Boise offers is beginning to list prime rib on their weekend menu. Where Thanksgiving has turkey, all of winter has prime rib. Whether it’s at home or you’re dining out, you really can’t ever go wrong. While the beef is the star of your plate, make sure that it’s paired with sides that set it over the top, such as garlic mashed potatoes, creamed horseradish, and, of course, tons of au jus.

Warm Up with a Post-Dinner Coffee Cocktail

After a hearty winter meal, the only thing left to do is sit back, chat with loved ones, and sip on an after-dinner cocktail. While you could opt for your go-to choice, why not mix things up? It’s cold out there, so get something to warm you up before braving the brisk air outside. Irish coffee, Spanish coffee, or any other coffee-based cocktail is a great choice. Perk yourself up after a hearty winter meal with the perfect post-dinner coffee.
