Showcases & Experiences

We're continuously striving to come up with new ideas, themes, and menu items.
These events are our opportunity to share them with you.
Showcases, based on wine varietals, spirits, or "destinations," explore food and beverages from around the world.
Themed events range from interactive and out-of-the-box murder mysteries and cocktail competitions to multi-coursed, paired culinary treasures, featuring traveling chefs, winemakers, or even based on works of art.
Tickets must be reserved in advance, with special diet and seating requests obtained then. For more information, check our our frequently asked questions.
