CANCELLED: Beer & Chocolate Dinner at Firehouse for SF Beer Week
UPDATE: The Beer & Chocolate Dinner at Firehouse has been CANCELLED. We apologize for any inconvenience this cancellation may have caused. There are many tough lessons taken away from this experience but at the end of the day, if we can’t put on an event we can be proud of, we’re not going to do it.
I must admit, I was a little worried about this event. SF Beer Week is less than two weeks away and the menu wasn’t set just yet. At least it wasn’t set until this past Sunday. We were able to do a dry run of the menu plus beer and I can say the pairings are solid as well as tasty!
We’ve been working hard to bring an event like this back to the south bay while keeping prices reasonable. I hope to see many of you there!
