About this Event
A Candlelit Feast for the Senses
For two nights only, Le Salon transforms Wormwood into an intimate sea of flickering light, a luminous setting for a deeply curated five-course tasting menu.
Nuit aux Mille Flammes is a celebration of French technique, seasonal California ingredients, and the sensual pleasure of dining slowly.
The candles create the atmosphere.
The cuisine carries the evening.
This is a gastronomic experience designed to unfold course by course, in rhythm with live music and thoughtful pacing.
The Setting
The dining room, our outdoor patio and our secret garden will be illuminated entirely by dozens of warm flickering candles, creating depth, softness, and intimacy throughout the space.
Live acoustic music will accompany the evening, present, but subtle, allowing the focus to remain on the table.
Expect an atmosphere that encourages:
Slower bites.
Longer conversations.
Greater presence.
The Culinary Experience

Expect:
• Refined French technique with modern California expression

Each course is introduced and timed to create a natural arc: from delicate opening expressions to richer, more indulgent plates, culminating in a decadent dessert experience.
Vegetarian accommodations available with advance notice.
