Dinners in the Dark - BLACKOUT
Do we have your attention?
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to dine in the dark? The theory of intensified flavors when removing sight was a brought to life by Jorge Spielmann, a blind clergyman. The first experience of a “Dark Restaurant” took place in Paris, followed by the first permanent restaurant in September 1999. Blindfolded friends who dined in his home reported greater enjoyment of their meal through the sense of taste and smell.
The concept of “dark dining” is based on the thought that when we remove one of our senses, our other senses become more heightened. In this case, removing the ability to see the meal placed before us will give our remaining senses of taste, touch and smell, a chance to define and discover unique attributes of any dish. Smells, textures, and sounds all become more intense and come alive within oneself.
Immerse yourself in a unique blindfolded dining experience designed to heighten your senses and tantalize your taste buds. “Dinner in the Dark” is a gastronomical experience that invites you to explore the full potential of your palate in a uniquely entertaining atmosphere. While blindfolded, you’ll enjoy exquisitely prepared dishes and savor a lavish dinner without using your sight, thereby enhancing your other senses.
