Italian restaurant Grossi (InterContinental Bangkok, 973 Ploenchit Rd., 02-656-0444) has something of a tradition of pairing its regional wine dinners with operatic live performances. On Oct 27, their latest offering will feature the musical talents of Thai pop-opera voice group VIVA!, and the four-course menu will include dishes from the Piedmonte region such as taleggio (a cheese) and pumpkin tart with truffles or grilled beef tenderloin with truffle and Barolo sauce. B2,499 per person. The dinner kicks off at 7pm with cocktails, followed by food service at 7:45pm.
