Rustic Canyon Dinner Series

Ringing in its landmark 10th anniversary this December, Santa Monica’s favorite neighborhood haunt Rustic Canyon Wine Bar & Seasonal Kitchen is throwing a commemorative dinner series with award-winning chefs from near and far. For three nights only, husband-and-wife co-owners Zoe and Josh Nathan and executive chef Jeremy Fox will invite acclaimed culinary mavens like Oria Menashe of Bestia, Jessica Koslow of Sqirl, and Walter Manzke of Republique to take over the kitchen for a six-course feast of seasonal, gourmet perfection. With each night representing a different crop of chefs, the three-fold celebration will serve up meals to remember. On October 3, Fox welcomes chefs and former colleagues who collectively boast six Michelin stars; on November 7, Fox will share the stoves with local LA chefs; and on December 8, former Rustic Canyon chefs will step into their old stomping grounds to up a feast on the restaurant’s actual anniversary. Score tickets for $125 per person, and if you’re feeling fancy, add on a wine pairing ranging from $55-$95. (Your taste buds will thank you later).
