This dinner series has been so fun! And we’re closing out the spring installment with a Fire and Feast event like no other. I’ll be joined by Chef Jon Newman and we’ll cook 7+courses over live fire as you dine under the stars (BTW: if you know a weatherman, put in a good word for us). Big thanks to our buddies at Pretentious Beer Co for their sponsorship. This dinner benefits the historic James White’s Fort and will be held in the courtyard of the fort.
