Celebrate France’s Independence Day with a Parisian Party
Celebrate Bastille Day with James Beard Award semifinalist® Kristen Hall, the one-woman force behind Birmingham’s La Fête, a Michelin Bib Gourmand–recognized French bistro and wine bar.
Inspired by the spirit of Parisian dining, Hall has garnered national acclaim for balancing rich, classical French cuisine with unexpected, savory interpretations of refined French pastry. For this special Bastille Day celebration, chef Hall will craft a multi-course menu that transports guests to the City of Light. Each course will be expertly paired with fine French wines, promising a night of elegance, celebration, and decadence.
This one-night-only dinner will feature a cocktail reception with passed hors d'oeuvre upon arrival, an expertly crafted multi-course menu with thoughtfully curated wine or beverage pairings, and a Q&A with the featured chefs.
