Join us for SupperClub.
Please join us for the third annual Les Dames SupperClub on Friday, October 11, 2019 at 6:00 pm at The American, an iconic venue known for great music, food and drink.
This landmark fundraising event is hosted by the Les Dames D'Escoffier Kansas City chapter, benefitting its culinary scholarship fund which provides educational scholarships to women studying the culinary arts.
A cocktail reception kicks off the event, hosted by members of our local Les Dames d’Escoffier. Enjoy appetizers from one of our talented local chefs, with wine and cocktails created and served by local bartendress, Jenn Tosatto. Raffle tickets will be available for purchase during cocktails, with a wide selection of local entertainment experiences and dining packages to win.
Once we’re seated, the party really begins! Enjoy the dinner by eight of Kansas City’s most celebrated women chefs who have come together to create an unforgettable five-course menu with exceptional wine pairings.
We’ll serve this extraordinary meal accompanied by the powerful vocals by Kansas City’s own Julia Haile, backed by an internationally celebrated band, which includes noted vibraphonist Peter Schlamb. You’ll thrill to hear these performances with the panoramic city views in the background at The American.
