Whiskey Dinner at Arugula

Whiskey Dinner at Arugula

Calling all whiskey lovers! Lift your spirits at Arugula’s first ever Whiskey Dinner. We have had so much fun over the years pairing food to wine and beer, that we figured we’d give whiskey a shot. We are going to delve into five geographically diverse and uniquely flavored small batch whiskies.
 
THE 5-COURSE MENU
Each dish is a seasonally inspired exclusive creation arising from our direct experience with the whiskey, designed to enhance and highlight the profile of each whiskey.  Robert Hernandez of Southern Glazers Wine & Spirits, will take us through this unique whiskey experience.
 
TICKETS
$79 (plus tax & tip); $50 for the 5-course dinner & $29 for the whiskey pairings, so you can still join us just for dinner if you’re not that into whiskey!
