SPECIAL EVENTS

Led by a Love of Oak & Smoke is a fall dining experience inspired by the forests, farms and coastline of the Pacific Northwest. Explore a multi-course menu showcasing seasonal ingredients through fire, smoke, char and oak-aging, complemented by optional wine pairings and barrel-aged cocktails. A celebration of harvest season at its most indulgent.   The evening begins with a selection of welcome canapés before unfolding through a series of shared plates designed to encourage discovery and conversation. Highlights include smoked duck breast with foie gras mousse and Ambrosia apples, charcoal-grilled matsutake mushrooms, smoked sablefish with maple glaze, and smoked beef tendon with house-fermented vegetables. The experience concludes with a decadent Kabocha Basque cheesecake paired with honey-cinnamon gelato.
