Last week, Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar debuted a new spring-tastic prix fixe menu, offering Valley diners a taste of the Caribbean. The special menu is available through June 20.
Fleming’s guests will have a choice of one of three entrées (listed below) and the option of butter lettuce salad or beach house garden soup and one side dish. For dessert, a tropical-inspired pineapple tart with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. To take the guesswork out of the dining experience, Director of Wine Marian Jansen op de Haar provides suggested wine pairings for each course.
