Join us for our next Understory Dinner on Monday, May 18th from 7–10pm, an intimate, multi-course dining experience set in the lounge beneath Burle’s Bar. Each Understory dinner brings together a thoughtful intersection of food, wine, and place—designed to feel layered, immersive, and shared.
This evening features Chef Robbie Pacheco. Seattle-born and Georgia-raised, Robbie has a deeply personal and creative connection to food—approaching each dish as an exploration of flavor, texture, and composition. Influenced by global spices and a refined approach to plating, his cooking highlights the individuality of each ingredient while building dishes that feel both expressive and intentional.
For Understory, Robbie has created a multi-course menu that moves from light, delicate openings into more structured, savory depth—featuring oysters with sweet chili ponzu and citrus foam, flounder crudo with pomelo and mala, and venison with blueberry bordelaise, before finishing with a bright, spring-driven pavlova.
Each course will be paired with a thoughtful wine selection from Winebow Imports curated by sommelier Adam Venable, including:
– Barone Pizzini Saten Franciacorta (2019), a biodynamic Blanc de Blanc sparkling wine from Italy to open alongside oysters
– Louis Moreau Chablis 1er Cru Vau Ligneau (2023), a mineral-driven Premier Cru Chablis paired with caviar
– Maison Chanzy Rully Rouge “En Rosey” (2023), a light, floral Burgundy served slightly chilled with the crudo
– Pecchenino Barolo “Le Coste di Monforte” Riserva (2008), a beautifully aged Barolo decanted to accompany the venison
– Henri Champliau “Wild Miss” Demi-Sec Rosé, a gently off-dry sparkling Gamay to complement the dessert
The evening begins with a welcome cocktail crafted by Burle’s featuring a spirit from Winebow Imports, followed by a private shopping hour at The Victorian—an opportunity to explore the shop after hours with a drink in hand before settling in.
Dinner will be served in courses at a communal table, encouraging a shared, conversational experience throughout the evening. Seating is limited.
