This year’s dinner theater will
have a three-course meal catered by
Chef Andre Averseng of Paso Terra.
Averseng and his wife, Cristina, went
to see one of Wine Country Theatre’s
performances last year to see a friend
perform. From there, the Aversengs
submitted a proposal to provide the
meal for the Valentine’s dinner theater.
“The board liked what they saw,”
Cristina said. “Both Andre and I love
the arts. … We love this idea of what
they do. We like to keep the arts alive
here in San Luis Obispo County. …
We’re honored to be a part of this
whole event.”
The menu they selected to serve is
“easy to serve,” Cristina said, and are
popular items with the public.
