We don't care if Hallmark invented Valentine's Day (or Mother's Day or Father's
Day). We HEART Valentine's Day! Not only is it a chance for couples to reaffirm
their love of food and flowers, it's also an amazing opportunity for you to
taste Chef Jaronik's food in its most ideal way: a Tasting Menu.
AND. In the Back Screening Room, we will feature the simultaneous screening
of four films at once, a feat we only attempt a few times a year. And tonight's
theme is Tainted Love: love films that are NOT romantic comedies;
love films that may end happily or maybe not or somewhere between the two.
We offer these four jewels for lovers young and old: John Cassavetes 1971 classic, Minnie
and Moskowitz, starring Gena Rowlands and Seymour
Cassel; Ming-Liang Tsai's 2005 softcore melodrama-comedy, Wayward
Cloud; Dusan Makavejev's bizarro 1974 sexcapade romp, Sweet
Movie; and Wong Kar Wai's 1997 Hong Kong via Buenos
Aires tango-drama, Happy
Together. The soundtracks will be mixed live with
our resident DJ mixing in twisted love songs from your past, present and future.
REALLY. Look at this Menu. Don't miss this. Reserve Soon, we will fill up.
