The ages-old belief that oysters and champagne conjure up feelings of love will be put to the test during Bluewater Grill Seafood Restaurant’s annual February tasting. And for the first time ever, die-hard romantics can add caviar to the mix. “Foods of Love: Oysters and Champagne” gives Bluewater Grill customers in Newport Beach and Tustin the chance to combine the reputed aphrodisiacal qualities of raw oysters with a number of sparkling wine varietals poured in honor of Valentine’s Day. The oyster and champagne tasting event will be held Feb. 7, and will feature parings of raw oysters on the half shell from British Columbia and Washington State with a choice of Domain Ste. Michelle Brut or Mionetto Prosecco Italian sparkling wine. Special draft beers are also available as an option. The cost of each pairing event is $29.95 per person, and advance reservations are required for sittings at each restaurant starting at 6:30 p.m. This year, participants can add 30 grams of Alverta White Sturgeon Caviar and a 750ml bottle of acclaimed Veuve Clicquot Brut Champagne for an additional $200. Sustainably harvested from mature American white sturgeon off Northern California and served with bilinis and crème fraiche, the caviar has a nutty, buttery flavor with a touch of sweetness. Reservations for the Feb. 7 tasting are encouraged, and at least 48-hour advance reservations are required for the caviar add-on. Seafood fans unable to attend the special Feb. 7 celebration can order the oysters off the menu throughout February, and pair them with wines on the bar menu. (The caviar is available throughout February with 48 hours advance notice.) The Bluewater Grill monthly tasting events, typically hosted every second Tuesday, feature seasonal seafood specialty items paired with hand-selected wines or specialty draught beers. The events have become a popular monthly diversion for local seafood aficionados and Bluewater Grill’s large fan base. Due to Valentine’s Day following on the second Tuesday this year, the tasting events have been moved to the first Tuesday this month only. Bluewater Grill locations in Orange County include 630 Lido Park Drive in Newport Beach, in Cannery Village, and 2409 Park Avenue in Tustin, at the District at Tustin Legacy retail and entertainment center. The phone numbers are (949) 675-FISH (3474) and (714) 258-FISH (3474), respectively. Location |
AB1825 Sexual Harassment Prevention Training - Silver & Freedman Webnairs
www.silverfreedman.com/Events/2012/AB1825-Sexual-Harassment-Prevention-Training-2-9.aspx AB1825 Training AB1825 Sexual Harassment Prevention Training Date: 2/8/2012 Time: 9:00-11:00 AM Location: Webinar Event Type: AB1825 Training Presenter: Silver Freedman Cost: $350.00 per attendee On January 1, 2005, AB 1825 required that all California employers with 50 or more employees or contractors provide at least two (2) hours of interactive sexual harassment training to all supervisory employees. It also mandates that these trainings occur every other year. If you completed your AB 1825 training last year, the law still requires that all new managers be trained within six months of hire or promotion. Take this opportunity to send any managers and supervisors who have not yet fulfilled their AB 1825 requirement. Videos, CD-Roms, or pre-recorded Internet programs will not suffice. A “supervisor” is any individual having the authority “to hire, transfer, suspend, lay off, recall, promote, discharge, assign, reward, or discipline other employees…”. Managing an assistant, for example, may be enough to be a supervisor. Silver & Freedman has been conducting supervisory training classes for more than 20 years, and we continue to offer training that will keep your company in compliance with AB 1825. Our classes deliver this crucial information in a practical, straight-forward, interactive, and interesting format taught by one of our Employment & Labor Law attorneys. We offer these classes in either a live, custom-tailored class, or in a very cost-effective, interactive webinar. Avoid an uncomfortable situation. Call Silver & Freedman’s Marketing Department at 310.282.9417 for more information. Location Cocoa Lounge - Palm Terrace Lounge - Newport Beach

Setting its most ambitious fundraising objective yet at $2.7 million, the family-friendly restaurant chain hopes that this seventh year will be lucky for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and other local charities. On National Pancake Day, more than 1,500 IHOP restaurants throughout the United States will serve each guest a free short stack of IHOP’s signature buttermilk pancakes all day long, from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. In return, guests are encouraged to make a voluntary donation to support the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital or another local charity. Guest donations have helped Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals purchase equipment and fund a variety of life-saving procedures and treatments for seriously ill or injured children. Participating IHOP restaurants will also raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals during the month of February through the sale of “Miracle Balloons” for $1 and $5 each. Personalized and displayed in the restaurants, Miracle Balloons offer guests an additional way to show their support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and contribute to the IHOP National Pancake Day fundraising effort. Guests who purchase a $5 Miracle Balloon will receive a coupon good for $5 off their next visit with a $20 purchase. Location Cocoa Lounge - Palm Terrace Lounge - Newport Beach

Wine Lovers Boot Camp – Tasting Like a Pro (St. Helena, CA) If you’ve ever wondered how professionals approach a glass of wine or you want more confidence when tasting a wine presented to you by the restaurant sommelier, you need to attend this Boot Camp! There are common techniques and language all the pros use when tasting wine, and our talented and experienced wine faculty will share them with you. Whether it’s one of the classic grape varieties of the world or an “up-and-comer,” you’ll learn the proper tasting techniques, important wine attributes to note, and fundamental characteristics that determine quality in wine. You will begin by learning a systematic process for tasting and evaluating wines efficiently and how to apply that process to still, sparkling, and sweet wines. You’ll taste the basic profile of the world’s classic white and red grape varieties and review the terms commonly used to describe the wines made from them. And you’ll gain an understanding of the impact of winemaking techniques—including the fermentation method, oak barrel use, and fortification—on the flavor of wine, as you identify the most common faults found in wines. To add to the fun, you will participate in blind tasting “challenges” with your classmates and compete for the coveted “Camp Champ” medal. In no time flat, you’ll be tasting wine like a pro!
