ABOUT ALPANA SINGH
At 19, Alpana pursued a path in the business with a job as a wine sales clerk at Nielsen Bros. Market in Carmel, California. By 23, she had landed the sommelier position at the world-renowned Everest Restaurant in Chicago. Just three years later at the age of 26, Alpana went on to become the youngest and first woman of color to pass final level of the Master Sommelier exam. This distinguished accomplishment, along with her effervescence, experience and energy, was magnetic, and it wasn’t long before Alpana found herself in the local spotlight. For ten seasons, she served as the host of the Emmy Award-winning restaurant review television show, Check, Please!, on Chicago’s PBS station, and returned in 2018 after a five-year absence. She served as the Director of Wine and Spirits for Lettuce Entertain You for five years before leaving in 2012 to open her first restaurant, The Boarding House. In 2014 she opened Seven Lions on Michigan Avenue followed by Terra & Vine, located in Evanston, in 2016. In 2020, Alpana resigned her title as a Master Sommelier and is now looking to build a new model of mentorship through wine education and staff training.
Alpana Singh's fourth restaurant venture, Alpana, is set to open in early spring. Located on the corner of State and Pearson in Chicago’s historic Gold Coast neighborhood, Alpana will feature wine-inspired fare in a convivial and stylish bistro setting. The inspiration behind wine inspired cuisine is to offer dishes that have been calibrated and built according to a sommelier’s palate.
