The Infinite Dinner Party

Outstanding in the Field is a “roving culinary adventure – literally a restaurant without walls”. Setting their signature pristine white table amidst the most heavenly of earth’s backdrops is kinda their thing.

For 15 years, this traveling feast has been inviting diners to eat on mountain tops, islands, ranches, in sea caves, greenhouses and vineyards.

The way it works is to reserve your chosen dinner event online (a schedule is released on the website every year on the first day of Spring) and wait to receive your invitation about two weeks prior to the event, which will include details such as dress code and directions to the sometimes secret locations.

On arrival, you’ll be greeted with some wine to help mingle with the other dinner guests and then take a little tour of the hosting farm or site. You’ll also meet the local producers who provided the ingredients.

About

I design video games for a living, write fiction, political theory and poetry for personal amusement, and train regularly in Western European 16th century swordwork. On frequent occasion I have been known to hunt for and explore abandoned graveyards, train tunnels and other interesting places wherever I may find them, but there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that I am preparing to set off a zombie apocalypse. Nothing that will stand up in court, at least. I use paranthesis with distressing frequency, have a deep passion for history, anthropology and sociological theory, and really, really, really hate mayonnaise. But I wash my hands after the writing. Promise.

  1. At 8 minutes per date, can you imagine how long this speed dating session would last?!

      Now that’s a clever business plan…someone should suggest that variation to them.
