Prepare for takeoff, your taste buds are about to take flight — all the way to Italy.

Red Seal Chef Sean Bone invites you to his new Langley restaurant, Osso Lunchroom, for a delicious evening of authentic Italian cuisine and of course — wine, on Wednesday, May 27th.

The event is called The Classic Wines of Italy with Chef Sean Bone and it’s one you won’t want to miss out on.  This private dinner will feature  a tour of Italy’s eight classic wine regions, including Prosecco, Brunello, Barolo and Barberesco.

Guests will enjoy these varieties alongside Sean’s locally and seasonal prepared dishes. Marquis Wine Cellars’ Italian Wine Buyer, Leah Bickford will be on-hand to share her love for Italy and the stories behind the places and people who make these amazing wines.

For those who haven’t been to the  Osso Lunchroom yet, this is the perfect opportunity to find out for yourself why it’s already receiving raving reviews throughout ‘the Valley.’

Warning: this is not your typical lunch place.

Chef Sean Bone is a Red Seal Certified Private Chef who has spent  years cooking for the rich and famous in a private setting (private yachts & estates).  He has attained many accolades from top-end executives, athletes and celebrities.

As a young boy, Chef Sean was deeply influenced by his Mother and Nona who were both Italian.  He learned that almost anything can be created from scratch.

In his later years, Chef Sean discovered his own passion for cooking and joined the Culinary Apprenticeship Program at Vancouver Community College.  He was trained under Chef Brian Fodor at Granville Island’s The Sandbar, Chef Annabelle Leslie at Cardero’s, Chef Robert LeCrom at The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver and Chef Dino Renarts at The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver 900 West/Bistro Pastis.  The guidance and mentorship provided by these highly respected chefs motivated Chef Sean to become known as one of the most meticulous and hard-working chefs in Vancouver.

I don’t know about you, but I’m super excited he has decided to set up shop here in ‘the Valley.’ The Osso Lunchroom features an exciting menu to tickle your taste buds. From the ROASTED CHICKEN sandwich with smoked cheddar, buttermilk gravy, fresh tomato & lettuce to the ROSCIUTTO, ARUGULA, PESTO & TOMATO pizza,  there’s something for everyone — even a kids’s menu.
