Secret Supper
What is Secret Supper?
Secret Supper is our version of the underground dinner…it is our chance to break out of our breakfast-lunch mold & showcase seasonal ingredients for supper.
What is the ’secret’ part?
We have two secrets….
The first is the date….only recipients of our email newsletter, our fans on Facebook and those that follow us on Twitter get the word of the next secret supper.
The second is the menu…but below are some of the past menus to give you a clue…we do make adjustments for allergies & other dietary restrictions…just let us know when you make your reservation.
Why is there a 48 hour cancellation policy?
Many of our ingredients are sourced & we commit buy them from the farmers & vendors ahead of time; we also spend a lot of time preparing for dinner throughout the week.
So with this kind of commitment we need you here to eat!
What if I have an emergency and need to cancel less than 48 hours prior to Secret Supper?
First, we will miss you!
Your credit card will be charged and a gift certificate for the pre-tax amount of the dinner for each person canceling will be sent to you…you can use this gift certificate for a future secret supper or anytime in our café or grocery.
