Dining is 'par excellence' at Spanish Oaks Golf Club

2/28/2019

 
PictureExecutive Chef Matthew Schaefer
​The first course was Oysters and Pearls, prepared with oysters, Osetra caviar, tapioca custard and a sabayon sauce.  The next course was Escargot a la Bourguignon. And after that, Pate de Champagne en Croute. Each of these was paired with a different fine wine, as were each of the next six courses at a recent Chef’s Tasting Dinner at the Spanish Oaks Golf Club.
​
The primary attraction at the Spanish Oaks club is golf. But as members will tell you, the outstanding food in the club dining room ranks a close second.
