Devon Seafood + Steak – Kendall’s critically-acclaimed restaurant and lounge – and FINKA Table & Tap – the neighborhood’s newest hotspot unifying Korean, Peruvian and Cuban cuisine – will join forces for Duo at Devon, a special one-night-only, five-course altruistic dining event on Thursday, March 19, 2015. Hosted by Devon Seafood + Steak, located at 11715 Sherri Lane, the collaborative dinner will benefit the Baptist Health Foundation, whose philanthropic support has helped to build new hospitals, including Kendall’s own West Kendall Baptist Hospital.
Priced at $60 per person including paired wines and tax, gratuity not included, and beginning at 7:30 p.m., the evening will kick off with a cocktail reception on the restaurant’s beautiful waterfront patio where guests will be greeted with Devon’s signature Blackberry Lemonade Cocktail – Grey Goose Vodka, Chambord, fresh-squeezed lemon juice and a Prosecco float, and FINKA’s handcrafted Smoked Bourbon Brisket Empanada canapé with Aji Panca Tahini Sauce.
Guests will then indulge in an evening of sophisticated wines of limited production – sponsored by the historic Domaine Souviou winery, located in Provence – perfectly paired with a five-course menu expertly crafted by local culinary darlings, chef Rod Chitikov of Devon and Eileen Andrade, chef/owner of FINKA.
