Dark Dining:

Feasts for the Senses

 

Don a blindfold and let us lead you into an environment created by an innovative artist (Dana Salisbury: Dark Dining Projects) in collaboration with inspired chef Abigail Hitchcock. Wearing a specially designed "Mindfold" blindfold, you are immersed in darkness; eyes open or closed, you experience the perfect blackout.

Each event is unique and features a different menu and artists/performers. Notice the unexpected. Let your four remaining senses take over. Perhaps there is something unexpectedly hard, warm or smooth in the breadbasket, or you are swept up in the percussion of a rainstorm. Between courses, unexpectedly vivid performances will fill the room; the evening’s artists (as always, unannounced in advance) might include a tap dancer and a virtuosic vocalist. Or a flamenco dancer and a jazz guitarist. They might hear a baroque violin, South Indian percussion, Japanese flute, or . . .  
Let the experience carry you to a romantic, intriguing innerspace.

Savor complex and delicious aromas wafting from the kitchen where chef Abigail Hitchcock is preparing a luxurious four course meal with fine wines. Challenge your palate to tease out the mysteries of the menu as you truly taste your food for perhaps the first time. Then afterwards, test yourself against the sealed menu card which reveals the event’s menu and performing artists.

"There was a hesitancy that was wonderful," says 31-year-old Jonathan M. "Paying attention to the way the hand slowly met the glass, the way the food slowly took on shape and identity in the mouth. It was such a wonderful exercise in being in the moment."
