Each course had a delicious handcrafted cocktail such as an espresso martini with vanilla cream, Brown Derby and 2 others.
A gentleman from Woodford Whiskey told the whole history of whiskey. Very interesting.
The food presentations were beautiful.
1st. - Chicken liver pate with grilled crostinis
2nd. - Grilled thick toast with a soft egg and honey pork belly (so good)
3rd. - Cucumber granita & a small cucumber drink (palette cleanser)
4th. - Shortrib with pureed potatoes & shaved brussel sprouts
5th. - Hazelnut mousse with fresh raspberries

This event was sold out. The cost was $45.00 a person plus gratuity.
They are looking at doing some other events like this. I would highly recommend these events !!
Sounds great! I hope they do it again when I'm down there. Also sounds like a designated driver may be in order.
