November is just around the corner, and that means the return of Dachi restaurant’s fun and worldly-inspired dinner parties! Tickets for these one-night-only events are bound to get scooped up well in advance, though, so consider this your fair warning…

This year’s edition of the Dachi dinner series features three very different cuisines: Nikkei (a delicious mash-up of Japanese and Peruvian cooking), Alsatian (from the Alsace region of France), and Japanese. Each themed menu, designed by Chef Ben Berwick and his team, will include five courses and pairings of (think cocktails, wine, and/or sake in true Dachi style).
