Celebrate Bastille Day like the French do, with a picnic for two OR consider hosting your own Bastille Day party by inviting friends to purchase their own picnic bags and join in the fun. Leave the cooking (and cleaning) to us, while everyone enjoys a breezy summer evening celebrating this national holiday in France, which is on Sunday, July 14 this year.

Our Bastille Day picnic bags include curated drinks and dishes prepared by members of the Les Dames d’Escoffier Kansas City chapter. We have pulled together a collection of the most amazing women from Kansas City’s food and drink scene to create this memorable picnic for you to enjoy.

PLUS, you’ll get a Gin Gimlet cocktail for 2 and a bottle of your choice of French white, rosé or alcohol-free wine. (Additional bottles of wine are available for purchase at $25 each.)

Each picnic bag includes everything you need to enjoy your meal for two on the spot with 2 plates, 2 wine tumblers, utensils, and napkins plus food, wine, and cocktails for $125.

Bon Appetite!
