A Little Spain in the Aspen

ASPEN, COLORADO­­–Just say “Spain” in Dallas and almost anyone who knows anything about food and wine will say, “Janet Kafka.” Janet is a busy gal–she runs a public relations company, is the Honorary Consul of Spain, was decorated by King Juan Carlos in 2004, is involved in all kinds of philanthropic work, and she and her husband Terry, live in a fabulously modern home in Dallas. (It’s so cool, it was featured in D Home.) Anywhoo, Friday night Janet hosted a sassy wine dinner, “Made in Spain,” at Jimmy’s, one of Aspen’s toniest restaurants. At the dinner, sponsored by Freixenet and the wines from the Ferrer family, Janet toasted her partnership with the coolest Spanish chef on TV, Jose Andres, whose show, Made in Spain runs on PBS.

    This must have been part of the Food & Wine Classic. Jimmy’s is fantastic. You can find more on Aspen restaurants at http://www.foodieaspen.com - Also if you make it into the Classic Grand Tastings, the Wines of Spain area has some really interesting offerings.
