AUSTIN, TEXAS | AUGUST 2022

‍Presented by Highland Park Whisky

In August, we hosted a long table dinner event that will be etched in our memories forever. What started as a typical balmy summer evening quickly turned into a magical experience as an unexpected rainstorm swept through. Despite the delay and the uncertain weather, those who stayed shared an extraordinary night filled with warmth, camaraderie, and a truly special meal.

To begin the evening, we gathered around a gorgeous bar featuring our Featured Partner Highland Park Whisky. As the sun began its descent, the atmosphere at our outdoor long table dinner was nothing short of enchanting. With the gentle rustle of leaves, the tantalizing aroma of delicious dishes, and the laughter of excited attendees, the evening promised to be one to remember. Our carefully curated table nestled in the heart of nature provided the perfect backdrop for an intimate gathering.

However, Mother Nature had other plans for the evening. Just as the guests were about to take their seats, an unanticipated rainstorm swept in, sending everyone scurrying for cover. Initially, there was disappointment in the air, but the event quickly transformed into a delightful adventure. Instead of letting the rain dampen our spirits, our guests embraced the serendipity of the situation. Laughter and camaraderie filled the air as strangers became friends while huddling together under makeshift shelters. The rain seemed to bring a sense of togetherness, connecting everyone in a way that no clear skies ever could. As the rain subsided, the evening resumed, but the atmosphere had changed. The twinkling lights reflected on rain-kissed surfaces, creating an ethereal ambiance. The meal, carefully prepared by our talented chefs, seemed to taste even more flavorful, as the warmth and spirit of the gathering elevated every dish. Conversations flowed freely, stories were exchanged, and memories were created. The evening became more than just a dinner event; it became a celebration of life, friendship, and embracing the unexpected.
