#FOOD: FAVORITES THAI X TENUTA SANTOMÈ COLLABORATION MONDAY APRIL 27, 2026

This spring, four-time MICHELIN Bib Gourmand–recognized Favorites Thai will host a one-night winemaker dinner in collaboration with Tenuta Santomè on Monday, April 27 at 6:00 PM. The Ossington restaurant will present a ticketed, multi-course tasting menu priced at $120 per person (exclusive of tax and gratuity), pairing its contemporary Thai cuisine with wines from the Veneto-based producer. Tickets for the event are available through the restaurant’s OpenTable under ‘Experiences’ HERE.

Designed as a one-night-only experience, the dinner brings together bold, fire-driven Thai flavours with a curated selection of Italian wines, offering a format that is both social and structured. Each course has been developed to highlight contrast and balance, with pairings that respond to spice, acidity, and texture.

The evening will be hosted in partnership with Tenuta Santomè, a winery based in the heart of Italy’s Treviso province, known for its focus on expressing local grape varieties through precise, sustainable viticulture. For the dinner, guests will be joined by winery owner William Spinazzè, who will guide the pairings and share insights into the estate’s approach to winemaking and its perspective on Veneto terroir.

The collaboration builds on Favorites Thai’s evolving culinary direction under Head Chef Ronnie Xu, whose cooking emphasizes charcoal-driven technique and a refined approach to Thai tradition. The format offers a focused opportunity to explore how Thai cuisine interacts with Italian wine in a curated setting.
