Now in it’s fourth year of celebrating the amazing chefs and robust culinary scene in Cincinnati, Savor roars with an all-star lineup. This unique event pairs two chefs from different restaurants and challenges them to collaborate and design a five course meal featuring items that are not available at their restaurants. Each course is paired with wine and will never be available again. It truly is a “once in a lifetime” experience.
Tickets are limited for this event to ensure proper safety precautions. Please see COVID-19 Protocols below. $125 per guest includes:
