WHO:

Savory dishes will be followed by pre-dessert and dessert courses from Pastry Chef, Renae Connolly. The evening will begin with Bar Director Todd Maul’s Koi Pond cocktail, a gin-based drink with housemade rosé paint, rosé essence, vermouth, and cocchi Americano. General Manager and Wine Director, Tom Mastricola will offer thoughtfully curated rosé wine pairings with each of Chefs Campbell and Connolly’s courses.
