Taste of Wine: An Italian dynamic duo Flora and Antica
148
Senior Editor Frank and I were excited to attend the recent Antica Wine Dinner at Flora Bar & Kitchen under the leadership of proprietor Sal Ercolano. As a reminder, Ercolano was Taste of Wine and Food’s 2020 Restaurateur of the Year.
When many were shuttering restaurants, Ercolano purchased Amici’s and converted it to Flora knowing its potential once the pandemic eased. Extra special was the fact that this was the first wine dinner held at Flora due to COVID-19 restrictions.
