FALLS CHURCH: 2941 Restaurant to Host 6-Course 'Spice Dinner' Featuring Custom Spice Blends from NYC Spice Master Lior Lev Sercarz of La Boîte - October 23rd

On Sunday, October 23rd, 2016 from 5:00PM to 8:30PM (regular seatings available), Executive Chef Bertrand Chemel, Pastry Chef Caitlin Dysart, and team at 2941 Restaurant has announced that they will be hosting their next 6-course 'Spice Dinner' showcasing custom spice blends from NYC Spice Master Lior Lev Sercarz of La Boîte in NYC.

Priced at $80 per person (not including beverages, tax, and gratuity), guests will enjoy a decadent 6-course spice-infused prix fixe tasting menu showcasing a selection of rare and custom spice blends from NYC Spice Master Lior Lev Sercarz of La Boîte (www.laboiteny.com). Guests will begin their dining experience with a gourmet greeting at their tables including their own personal sample of some of Sercarz's signature spices for them to taste, touch, smell, and bring home with them following the dinner. Sommelier Ryan Jones will also be on hand offering optional wine pairings with each course available for an additional $65 per person. Reservations are required.

“I had the pleasure of working with Lior during my time living and working in NYC for Daniel Boulud,” said Executive Chef Bertrand Chemel of 2941 Restaurant. “We met in the kitchen, became good friends, and I enjoyed watching him advance from a banquet and catering chef to a full blown spice guru not just for Daniel Boulud, but also for quite a few other notable NYC-based chefs as well such as Eric Ripert, amongst others. After leaving NYC to take the Executive Chef position at 2941, I remained close with Lior – a culinary friendship spanning over a decade - and continue to use many of his beautiful spices in my dishes and on my menus at 2941 Restaurant year-round. We have hosted several Spice Dinners featuring Lior's beautiful custom blended spices in the past few years and are humbled that they have always sold out and have become a favorite of our guests. It's an exciting way for us to showcase just how fantastic his wonderful products are. I'm proud of him and honored to offer a special dinner like the Spice Dinner where I can continue to make guests happy and expose them to Lior's wonderful spices."

Lior Lev Sercarz is the chef, spice blender and owner of La Boîte, a biscuits and spice shop in New York City.
