520 Etc.: The news from Sapphire
We just received this release from the good (and cute) folks at Sapphire about upcoming changes to Knoxville's swankiest joint. Read on:
Because many of you have been asking ... Sapphire's
wine dinner for September will feature all sparkling
wine! From sweet to dry and red (yes, red!) to white,
our distributor partners from B & T have come up with
a unique selection of 5 wines that really sparkle.
Expect some interesting food pairings from Executive
Chef Chip. Please join us September 19 at 6:00 PM for
the event. $35 with reservation, $38 without. You
wont be disappointed.
And in case you haven't heard, starting Thursday of
this week, Sapphire will have a new full dining menu
with four categories: HOT CHILL RAW SWEET. We did
keep some of the favorites from our previous menus and
we will still have our 5 course tasting menu with
optional wine pairings.
And speaking of wine pairings, also starting this
Thursday we will offer 60 wines by the glass,
including 10 sparkling wines. We have made an
investment in a state of the art wine preservation
system that will ensure every glass tastes like it
came from a freshly opened bottle. As always, we
still offer 30% off wine by the glass and bottle every
Tuesday.
Also new, for lovers of our signature drinks, we have
an enhanced signature drink list. We brought back all
the favorites of days gone by (like the White Courtesy
Phone and the Makaha) and have added four flavors of
Mojitos - Pomegranate, Passion Fruit, French and
Seasonal Berry. And now all the Mojitos are available
no sugar added using Splenda sweetener! Be sure to
check out our new signature shooter list as well.
Sapphire is also offering live jazz on Wednesday nights and drink specials throughout the week.
In addition to all the new drinking and dining
selections, we will be giving our website a facelift
in the coming weeks to better represent all the
changes. Keep your browser pointed to

The SFR family was busy this summer in preparation for
all the changes and hope to see you soon to see what
we have been up to!
