11 Food Pairing Innovations

These food pairing innovations range from AR cider pairing apps to craft beer cookbooks.

While examples like the Angry Orchard Cider+Food app rely on augmented reality technology to identify tasting notes, recipes and food pairings, Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar's Uncorked Wine Experience aim to elevate patrons dinner visit. The restaurant offers a signature, fixed price menu that is affordable and specially curated to pair with its Duckhorn wine portfolio.

Other food pairing innovations to note include DeLallo's 'Olive + Beer Pairing Guide' along with 'The Beer Pantry,' a book by Adam Dulye and Michael Harlan Turkell that explores the intersection of "craft beer and great food" by highlighting beer-inspired dishes and those that showcase its versatility as an ingredient.
