Grand Reopening Party at South Shores Tavern

It’s going to be a party at South Shores Tavern and you are all invited. For those of you who have been attending our events for awhile, must remember Chef Joe from Secrets Piano Bar. When we last visited Secrets, Joe had magically disappeared, but we have tracked him down. He has taken over the kitchen at South Shores Tavern in Lake Worth. He’s in the process of revamping the restaurant to make it more upscale and he says everything will be completed for our event. Join us as we help celebrate the re-grand opening of South Shores Tavern with Joe.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Chef Joe, he has spent time in the kitchens of Barton G, the Versace Mansion and Secrets Piano Bar (where his wine dinners were voted the best in the county) — and he spoils us whenever we do an event with him. This is one you won’t want to miss.

When: Wednesday, September 22 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Where: South Shores Tavern, 502 Lucerne Ave, Lake Worth

Cost: $10 in advance, $15 at the door — a portion will be donated to the Susan B. Komen Foundation

This will include 1 drink (TBD) and a selection of complimentary hors d’oeuvres.

MENU:

Tequila Cured Gravlax
Duck confit spring rolls
Tempura chicken with red pepper thai chili sauce
Stuffed Mussels
Homemade flat bread
