The Last Days of Pompeii Date Night Cooking Experience
Advertisement
Step back in time for an evening of ancient flavors and timeless romance as we commemorate the final days of Pompeii with a hands-on culinary experience inspired by the foods of the Roman Empire.
Based on archeological research and historical texts, this menu brings the past to life with elegant simplicity and bold flavors: stuffed dates, herbed ricotta with honey and walnuts, and baked eggs with leeks and lovage, followed by coriander-scented chickpeas, house-made Lucanian pork sausage, and parsnip purรฉe. For dessert, a Roman favorite: pear patina, a delicately spiced fruit custard.
Held on the (probable) anniversary of Mount Vesuviusโ€™s eruption in AD 79, this unique date night invites you to taste historyโ€”one course at a time.
Each ticket admits TWO PEOPLE.
