Dali SURrealistic Dinner

Benefit for The Big Sur Food & Wine Foundation

Monterey holds deep history with one of the most famous events, The Dizzy Dali Dinner: A Surrealistic Night in an Enchanted Forest, held in 1941 at The Del Monte Hotel. To date, this dinner is touted be one of the greatest parties everyone talked about but only a few could attend. 

Highly inspired by the sensorial and visceral alchemy of Dali’s dinner party, we invite you into a world of epicurean “self-expression without the filter of reason,” consummated with fine wine, the magical component of communication, depth and secrets.

6 Courses  | 6 Chefs

 Chef Colin Moody

I didn't know what they were taking about...

I have Les dîners de Gala in my book collection. It’s Dali’s cookbook. Amazingly it includes a recipe for avocado toast long before it was a thing.

There are a lot of surreal recipes. If memory serves, frogs are included. It's a beautiful book, fully illustrated like only Dali can.
