BIRDFAT. It was a time.
Like stepping onto the set of a jazzy noir film—only with seriously delicious eats.
Doing it with gusto alongside Chef Jonathan Biko Mandela Jones of Epilogue Kitchen And Cocktails & Tiquette Bramlett . Thanks to brynmawrvineyards & Henderson Ave for helping make the whole thing a reality!
To every crew member that night: I felt the camaraderie and was honored to play a role in bringing it all together.
And I’m gonna say it with a twist, as a nod to the ultra-talented Iona Tong, Iona , for absolutely nailing the perfectly paired, complex craft cocktails for the evening…
Pretty Chic.
Notes of jazz lingered and mingled throughout the night, rendering the evening a hands-down success. The inspiration behind it all? The one & only Charlie “Bird” Parker.
Still incredibly in awe of what this crew pulled off. Proof that a pop-up can truly transport you to another time and era.
Drop a comment: What’s “Kinda Chic” for you? Any passion projects out there? You know I’m always up for a collab!
This one was a little bittersweet, but pretty damn special.
