# **FOOD SAFETY, ALLERGY & RAW FOOD ADVISORY**
The Unseen Table is a multi-course culinary tasting experience featuring a diverse range of ingredients and preparation techniques. Certain courses may contain or incorporate **raw or undercooked meat, poultry, seafood, shellfish, fish, eggs, roe, caviar, or other animal-derived products**.
**Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, particularly if you have certain medical conditions.**

The menu may contain or come into contact with common food allergens, including but not limited to **milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, and sesame**, as well as other ingredients capable of causing allergic reactions or food sensitivities.
Due to the nature, complexity, preparation environment, and volume of this tasting experience, **The Unseen Table cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment or the absence of cross-contact between ingredients.**
Guests with severe or life-threatening food allergies should carefully consider these circumstances before participating.
Guests are responsible for reviewing available food and allergy information and notifying The Unseen Table of known food allergies when requested prior to the event. Disclosure of an allergy does not constitute a guarantee that a course can be modified or that cross-contact can be prevented.
### **GUEST ACKNOWLEDGMENT**
By purchasing a ticket and participating in The Unseen Table, the guest acknowledges that the experience may include raw or undercooked foods and ingredients associated with food allergies or sensitivities and voluntarily elects to participate with knowledge of these inherent food-related risks.

# **DIETARY ACCOMMODATIONS POLICY**
The Unseen Table is a carefully choreographed, multi-course tasting experience in which each course forms part of a larger culinary narrative.
