From the annals of Picnic Operetta Past, a pairing of …

…Tales of Hoffman’s The Diabolical Lindorf Aria with a bitter-sweet cool glass of Elderberry Kombucha bubbly.

…From Alcina’s Island 2011, “Six Days on the Road Tonight” with a dinner rest-stop delicacy, a truffled tomato cheddar melt.

…From Orpheus & Eurydice, a Picnic Operetta, Otis Reading’s Pain in My Heart with  a Broken Hearted Baby Beet.

or from the annuls of Italy’s Culinary Canon:
try a pairing of Proseco with Parmigiano Reggiano to the tune of Giuseppe Verdi
