Wine + Weenies This Thursday, Starlite Lounge

Here's one to get on your calendar right away.

What's the rush?

Let's put it this way.

When's the last time you drank wine with your weenie?

With your hot dogs, that is.

Let's see. Maybe... Never?

Us neither.

We'll all have our chance this Thursday at
Trina's Starlite Lounge in Somerville.

That's right. Wine with hot dogs.

But it isn't like these are going to be plain ole Oscar Meyer.

We're talking four hot dogs prepared by four of Boston's fave chefs: Gregg Reeves from
Green Street Grill, Mark Romano from Highland Kitchen, Jaime Bissonnette from Coppa, and Suzie Maitland batting for the home team.

Four wines, too, which were chosen because they pair just so.

What "just so" means when it comes to weenies, we don't know.

But we'll be there, for sure, to find out.
