SENSATIONAL SPICES : A Dinner with Épices De Cru (see potential menu below!)
IMAGINE intrepid trekkers from Épices de Cru, traversing the Silk Road, from Nara, the 7th century capital of Japan, via Umruqi, a major Chinese trade hub in the Tang dynasty to Balkh, a 2500 year old city in northern Afghanistan.
IMAGINE them collecting spices along the way and delivering them to Ji Hye- a diligent student of food history and an exemplary chef.
IMAGINE Chef Ji Hye Kim transforming those treasures into a feast, just for YOU.
With some allowance for dramatic hyperbole, that’s pretty much what’s going to happen on April 30, 2018.
***SPECIAL GUESTS: Marika and Steve of Épices De Cru!***
$75/PERSON, $100 w/BEV PAIRING
