Dining in the Dark

In addition to the delicious meals served during the day, Market 17 also claims the flavors of the deliciously prepared dishes are enhanced while indulgingÂ on courses without the use of sight or silverware. Hence, “Dining in the Dark” was conceived. Chef Lauren DeShields meticulously creates separate dishes nightly solely for the Dining In the Dark guests. Here, the dining room is completely dark. But don’t fret, your server will kindly help you locate and stabilize your food and drinks. You are then left alone to smell and even feel your food, and figure out what you are eating and drinking. The experience takes placeÂ in a completely pitch black private room.
