Local Roots NYC Supper Club : Valkeryie Dinner
Local Roots NYC is teaming up with Chef Kei Ohdera to present a beautiful, farm sourced multi-course dinner. Proceeds will go towards supporting Local Roots NYC and the American Red Cross.
On April 1st Chef Kei Ohdera will be serving five courses on the charming 61 Local mezzanine. Each course will highlight the ingredients of the season and his international culinary training. In addition to the lavish early spring spread, we will pour two complimentary beer pairings from NY State breweries.
This will be an intimate dinner for friends, family and CSA members so be sure to get your tickets early as seating is limited. To provide as many diners an opportunity to join us as possible we will offer two seatings:
April 1, 2014 First seating at 5:30pm $65/per person Second seating at 8pm $75/per person
