Chers Confrères:

Attached to this email is the formal invitation to the Chaine’s December event: our Holiday Dinner at Embers Restaurant on Sunday, December 1, 2024 at 5:30 PM.   For this year’s Holiday Dinner we are returning to another excellent restaurant we haven’t been to since 2016: Embers Restaurant in Kenwood. You’ll recall that in October our Dine Around at 20 Brix was another 2016 revisit. We think its about time as we have always had great holiday events at Embers. Owner Jon Zipperstein and GM Barron Matern are welcoming us back with a wonderful seasonal menu that will we think you’ll all love. And our wine committee will be meeting soon to select the perfect wines to match each course. An excellent way to kickoff the holiday season!  

As is tradition at the Holiday Dinner we will be awarding our Bronze Star Medal of Excellence.

Guests are welcome to attend but reservations will be limited to 90 so please respond quickly. The deadline to make your reservations is Friday, November 22, 2024.
