The Chef Upstairs, in collaboration with The Dalí Museum and its special exhibition Dalí in America, is excited to host a culinary-art experience that transforms aspects of Salvador Dalí's Dizzy Dali Dinner (1941) into an interactive, plated competition. Edible Surrealism invites guests to step beyond observation and into creation. Blending food, art, and imagination in a guided, high-energy event hosted by The Chef Upstairs (inside The Foodie Labs).
This one of a kind experience is a curated artistic competition, where plating becomes the medium and Dalí the muse. Team up to create a surreal, show-stopping hors d'oeuvre, guided by professional chefs and artistic inspiration drawn from Dalí himself. You'll design, plate, and perform.
