  • An Evening with Chiara Drocco

    $75.00 - $125.00 per person

    Prepaid

    Apr 29, 2025 only
    Join us on Tuesday, April 29th, for an extraordinary dining experience as we welcome Chiara Drocco of Cascina Adelaide for a four-course dinner featuring wines from her family’s esteemed Barolo estate. This unique evening marries the bounty of Nebraska’s spring ingredients with the deep-rooted traditions of Piedmontese cuisine, all paired with the exquisite wines of Cascina Adelaide—one of the Langhe region’s most innovative and historic wineries. Founded in 2000, Cascina Adelaide is a tribute to Amabile Drocco, who left a thriving mechanical career at age 60 to pursue his passion for viticulture. Today, his granddaughter Chiara, representing the winery’s third generation, brings fresh energy and respect for tradition, continuing the family’s dedication to crafting world-class wines. The estate’s 12 hectares of vineyards—including eight historic Barolo crus—produce wines that are a masterful balance of heritage and innovation. For $125 per person (dinner only option available for $75), you will enjoy a thoughtfully curated menu that seamlessly blends Nebraska’s finest spring produce with Piedmontese flavors, creating an unforgettable culinary experience. Each course will be paired with Cascina Adelaide’s elegant wines, from the rare Nascetta white to the bold and expressive Nebbiolo-based reds. Don't miss this one-night-only opportunity to dine, sip, and immerse yourself in the spirit of Barolo, guided by Chiara herself. Reserve your seat now!

    The bad experience mostly resulted from our server. He rarely checked on us throughout dinner, but rather checked in with others right next to us and bypassed us. He forgot to ring our appetizer and another waiter who refilled our waters rang that up for him and brought it out quick, with no charge on us. Our server rarely refilled our waters and he took a while to get back to my fiancé with her drinks. At first we thought he was just manning the bar too but he was checking in with others around us as well but not us.

    Wanted to visit Dante since reading an article about Nick Strawhecker in Covey Rise magazine (2023). We are from Houston TX and enjoyed our experience. Guisppe pizza shared by my spouse and friend was very good. The calamari appetizer was delicious and a pleasant variation from the norm. I had carbonara which was excellent ( almost as good as the best I’ve ever had near Piazza Navona in Rome). Made perfect using guanciele and bucatini as it should be made. Thanks for the excellent service and food. I will send a copy of the magazine Covey Rise that you can display on your “wall of fame”. Good to show some national coverage.

    We’ve dined here for years and our experience this night was one of the best. Their gourmet pizzas are fabulous! Light, crispy crust. I had the Incontro and my wife had the Diavolo. Delicious. We had brussels sprouts for a side, brought out ahead of the meal. Cooked just right, seared but moist with chunks of bacon. Great wine list and craft beers.
