Beyonce 2nd Week Release

After 320 different people signed up for our waitlist for Beyonce, we decided it might be a smart idea to open up a second week. Our Queen B dinner will now also be the following week June 29-July 2. 

We hope to see you all there, as this will be our last tribute dinner in our current space till we move to our new location! More news on that to come in the near future. 

Make your reservations here.

Best,

Chef Sam

He hasn’t always been a chef though… With a background in advertising, he started cooking out of necessity early in his career.
