Here's the pairing menu from last nights Scotch dinner.  Everything was great, and I particularly liked the Duck Breast with Cherry Gastrique;  we did sous vide and then seared it to finish; it was the best duck I've ever had, if I do say so myself :)

    I hope this fundraiser went well! This looks like a great event at a great venue! I wish Sonoma County would hold more events like this, particularly ones that benefit great causes. The museum is a great part of Petaluma's history and should be supported as such. Thank you for catering this event!
