We can also refund you if you cancel before noon on 8/21. After 12pm on 8/21, if you don’t attend the dinner, we will have to give your $50 to the restaurant. Please venmo $50 to @Iraina-Rosenthal-Tawil by 12pm on 8/21 (Thursday) to hold your spot - see you there! From their website: “Chef Amira brings her Egyptian heritage and culinary instincts to a bold new format: true tapas. Inspired by the era when the Arab world shaped Spanish cuisine, the menu reimagines small plates as a fast-paced, soul-driven experience. Think: confit leeks with date vinaigrette, harissa-spiced Spanish tortilla, Turkish simit with whipped feta, and saffron blood orange shaved ice. Every dish is intentional. Nothing is performative. It’s a format that feels ancient but also urgently modern: vegetable-forward, intensely flavorful, and meant to be passed, devoured, and talked about.”
