If you're the kind of person who says "meh" in the face of economic chaos, you might be interested in the debut of the Italian Wine Merchants' new series at Aquavit. On January 22nd, the Midtowner is hosting an elaborate $395 per person, five-course smorgasbord of Scandinavian fare paired with a bevy of cult and limited-production Italian wines, including the debut restaurant appearance of "Italy's rarest white," Fiorano Bianco (7 PM; $395 per person; very limited seating, click here to reserve).
