"Every dish carries the place and memory it comes from."

Join us for a special evening of storytelling + culture + flavors + community with
Chef Kesh Akinsanya!

Sunday, September 27th 4:30-7:30

Four relaxed courses + welcome snack

$85/ticket

A selection of w**es by the glass/bottle or alternative beverages available for purchase.

A easygoing and casual, stand-sit-and-mingle dinner built entirely from recipes Chef Kesh has personally developed while living around the world — pulled from his debut cookbook: Kesh's Table: A Love Affair With Food.

With a Lebanese uncle, a Liberian mother, and a Nigerian father, Chef Kesh will share his stories of his family and their connection to each dish he creates.

Note: this is not a formal sit down dinner. We will have tables available but feel free to move table to table while visiting friends, or stand and chat while you sip & nibble, or curl up around the coffee table in the icehouse while listening to vinyl.

Make yourself at home!

Dress for the weather and enjoy the patio, icehouse, and kitchen while you mingle! Campfire will be weather and burn ban permitting.

*gluten-free/vegan/vegetarian can be accommodated*
This event is for 21+ only please

We wrapped our first summer outdoor dinner last weekend with newcomer( to us!) Chef Kristen Young and her fantastic Orchard & Ember themed feast! There can be a little apprehension with a new chef but Kristen out performed and delighted us with all of her dishes! Fabulous pairings from LONE WOLF W**E (the sacredshorew**es Albariño paired with the charred apricot and tomato gazpacho sung!!) and Kristen’s black sesame & buttermilk ice cream now holds a seat as one of my favorite ice creams ever!

Thank you to all who came out on a chilly Junuary evening and to our dream team, Ali & Jacqui!

Full house, full bellies, full hearts ❤️
