Alsace, a region in north-eastern France, is located on the banks of the Upper Rhine alongside the borders of Germany and Switzerland.  Wines from the Alsace region are prized  for their terroir-- the unique characteristics of climate, geography, and history that distinguish Alsatian vineyards from all others. Alsace produces white grape varietals, offshoots of  the German Gewürztraminer and Riesling, that are sought-after for their floral and spicy qualities. Open Kitchen's Executive Chef Bernard Henry, who was born and raised on a dairy farm in Alsace-Lorraine, has created a special food and wine menu that evokes Alsace's unparalleled beauty and singular flavors.

We look forward to having you join us on this evening of good food,
good wine, and good company.
