Sip and Sample at The Salty Pig’s Board Games

Join General Manager Jillian Rocco and in-house Cheese Guru Anthony Liberti at The Salty Pig, as they teach and treat you to a variety of wine and cheese pairings for their new educational and edible series, Board Games.

During the Sunday evening, gather around the [cheese] boards, decked out with delicacies, whether they be stinky, salty or sweet, and learn about which one of these cheddars, bries and colbys goes best with which wine - and what slice of house-cured prosciutto compliments your favorite sip of chardonnay.
