2nd Annual Culinary Fantastique: 4-Course Dinner Benefiting the JCSO 1024 682 Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra

The Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra is bringing back our popular 4-course dinner/cooking extravaganza—“Culinary Fantastique”—on Saturday, November 3, 2018 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Publix Aprons Cooking School at Alpharetta Commons, 4305 State Bridge Road.  The theme for this 4-course meal (paired with specially-selected wines) will be holiday cooking, featuring mouth-watering new twists on traditional recipes.

 “Our first culinary event in April was so well received that we decided to bring it back for the holidays,” remarked JCSO Executive Director Linda Brill. “Just like seasonal music, the tastes of the holidays evoke memories of simpler times shared with friends and loved ones. We wanted to capture that intimate feeling in a 4-course dinner featuring recipes that cooks can share at their own holiday tables.” All proceeds from this fundraising event benefit the Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra.

The evening will be a feast for both the eyes and the ears, as attendees will be treated to parlor-style musical performances by individual Johns Creek Symphony Orchestra musicians at periodic breaks in the evening.  Attendees will also learn the backgrounds of the various dishes they are eating, how to prepare each one at home, special cooking techniques, and at the conclusion of the evening they will receive the recipes plus a coupon for a 20% off cooking items purchased from the Publix Aprons Cooking School.

ADMISSION to this special event is $75 per person. While the RSVP and pre-payment deadline is not until Monday, October 29 at 5 p.m., only 48 seats will be sold so patrons are encouraged to reserve their place at the table early. Reservations can be made by visiting www.JohnsCreekSymphony.org or by calling (678) 748-5802. No tickets will be sold at the door.

*JCSO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. For tax purposes, this event has a value of $45 per person. Any amount donated over $45 per person is deductible to the extent permitted by law.
