Dinner baskets are $50/person for tables of four or $60/person for two, and must be ordered in advance.
Snake Oil Cocktail Company will provide "The Le Diner 'SD' Cocktail", made with rum, coconut milk, key lime, curry, and fresh mint, priced at $10, wines at various prices, and a selection of 22 oz. local beers. Cash or plastic will be accepted at the bar.
