Join us for a fun evening as we meet up with old and new friends for great food and wine. Our social group is dedicated to discovering and promoting the best of the Pittsburgh Asian dining landscape.

This is our second wine Exchange called "Toy for Tots." The goal of the Toys for Tots program is to communicate a message of hope. The program serves families who are needy and the goal is that by communicating hope in the midst of dire needs (through the giving of new toys), that children will see beyond their circumstances to grow into productive and responsible citizens. In essence, through the delivery of new Christmas toys where there might not be any otherwise, Toys for Tots seeks to contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty.

How the Wine Exchange Works:

Much like your typical gift exchange, a guest will bring a wrapped or bagged bottle of wine. There is no set price range for the wine, but it is typically recommended to be around $15 so that the recipients are getting a wine of similar quality that they are gifting.

We do recommend bringing two bottles of wine, but you don’t have to. Because of the format of the exchanges, we don’t always get around to opening the gifted bottles until partially through the evening.

Corkage is the discretionary fee (approximately $2.50-$10) that an establishment chooses to charge to open each bottle. Corkage includes the service for providing you a wine glass as well. As a bonus, some locations will offer to chill certain wines upon request. Your corkage fee is included in the overall cost.

You do not have to participate in the Wine Exchange to attend, you are more than welcome to enjoy the dinner portion only.

Please drink alcoholic beverages responsibly.
