The Eat+Drink Supper Club PIG ROAST!!!

What an amazing dinner this past Saturday with Chef Jocelyn Guest and her team roasting up a whole pig for us!  If you weren’t there, you missed a hell of a night - great friends, amazing food and delicious wines.  Eat+Drink’s THIRD Supper Club was a stellar hit.  

Lucky diners took away the Salt Block Cookbook from The Meadow, the Rock and Vine book, Wine to Water books and TWO Bespoke Post boxes all about barbecue.  Don’t forget the special 15% discount code at Bespoke Post - EATDRINK if you plan on signing up!

Keep an eye out for the next Supper Club posting this week!!

OPPR - Other People’s Pig Roast

Look how ahead of the pack we are!  Our Eat+Drink Supper Club pig roast has been set for weeks with Chef Jocelyn Guest from Lindy & Grundy fame.  Private club 41 Ocean just announced their Memorial Day pig roast this Monday.  I guess imitation is the best form of flattery.



I can’t believe this but we’re actually almost SOLD OUT for this dinner!  How AMAZING is that!

A Curated Experience with Chef Jocelyn Guest

I’ve never been to a whole pig roast and I’m guessing you haven’t either.  Now you have the chance to see it up close and personal and taste some of Napa’s premiere, small-batch wines paired with each course of all the pork you can eat.

Saturday, June 8th
7:00p Cocktails & 8:00p Dinner: $100

Chef Jocelyn Guest is an up and comer in the meat world with a position over at Lindy & Grundy - the all-organic, nose-to-tail butcher on Fairfax.  If you haven’t visited yet, it’s a must see.  Soon Jocelyn will have her own multi-night Supper Club with communal dining.  Now’s your chance to experience her cooking BEFORE she becomes a hot shot!  

I have 24 seats available for this June 8th dinner.  $100 per person includes EVERYTHING (all beverages are complimentary), all you have to do is bring your hungry, thirsty self.

Bespoke Post for Eat+Drink

I am in love with Bespoke Post.  I have exacting taste so you know it’s that good.  And now we have hooked up a special deal for all you Eat+Drink-ers!  

What do they do?  Bespoke Post puts together themed boxes with sweet products from cool brands. If you don’t like a box, you can skip it free of charge.  

The cost? $45 a month and the value of the box is $70-$130.

What’s in it? A few of the boxes I have received are in the shots above. Coffee, charcuterie, salt…many boxes revolve around some type of food, wine or spirit. In December I received the MOST amazing, custom made for Bespoke Post wine decanter I’ve ever seen. I use it as often as possible and amaze everyone. 

Why you have to have it? I have had more conversation starters because of these boxes than you can imagine. I actually opened one box in the middle of a dinner party just to show everyone how awesome it was. It’s worth the $ in spades.

Why you are so lucky.  I received last month’s box - ‘Cue - and went nuts.  It’s all about BBQ and grilling.  The spices just make you want to breathe them in all day.  Bespoke Post has sent me ANOTHER ‘Cue box to give away to a lucky Eat+Drink Supper Clubber at next month’s dinner.  That June 8th dinner with Chef Jocelyn Guest is all about grilling and meat - we’re going to roast an entire pig!

What do you need to do?  If you can’t wait until June 8th to see if you will win a free box, you can sign-up for your own subscription now and get 15% off your first box.  Just use the Promo Code EATDRINK when you sign up on their website.  That’s it, that’s all you have to do to have some of the coolest products I’ve seen!











Eat+Drink Supper Club!!

This past weekend was our 2nd (and 3rd) supper clubs.  We had a preview dinner on Friday for 14 people and the big kahuna on Saturday with 30 people.  What amazing nights!!!  Chef Eric Nelson Brown’s 7-course sushi extravaganza with sake pairings was over the top.  The people were delightful.  The evening was crisp, clean and beautiful.  What more could we want?  Nothing, nothing at all.  

We can’t wait for the next one - a whole pig roast - on June 8th with Chef Jocelyn Guest.  Keep an eye out for the invite coming soon!!
