You are bidding on a $100 Gift Certificate to All Spice Contemporary Indian Cuisine- San Mateo.

Shrouded in obscurity and intrigue, spices have mesmerized and intoxicated mankind for centuries. This essential ingredient has also captivated co-owners Sachin Chopra and Shoshana Wolff, who aptly named their restaurant to encompass the world of spices.

Having worked his way through some of Manhattan's finest restaurants, and most recently, been instrumental in launching a number of successful South Bay Indian fusion restaurants, Sachin is excited to create a restaurant that pays respect to this all-powerful flavor enhancement.

Sachin's seasonal menu incorporates California's fresh-food sensibilities with the traditions of Indian cuisine. Sachin's cooking is exuberant while still being subtle, paying tribute to the lessons learned as a child.

Shoshana's passion for food and her in-depth knowledge of wine are showcased in the dining room and on the wine list. Her first bottling of soon-to-be-released Wolff & Father Wines complement the aromatic notes of Eastern spices that make an appearance on the menu.

From the spice-colored walls and rich wood floors to the scent of exotic flavors filling the air, All Spice takes diners on an edible journey to some of history's most significant spice ports.

Sachin and Shoshana invite you to join them on this personal journey.
