Welcome to ARCANE 15

We are pleased to extend to you an invitation to ARCANE. ARCANE is a secret, invite-only supper club. ARCANE is geared toward the adventurous diner. Locations are secret, menus are unveiled the night of the event and the contents of the glass are extra special. For this rendition we'll be presenting an evening of immersive experience of wines from Washington State's, House of Smith. Todd Smith will join us for the evening to discuss each selection and this unique viticultural area.

This event is being held in the East Village area of Downtown San Diego. This event will consist of a welcome reception, tray-passed 1st course, then 5 course seated dinner + dessert. Due to the unique nature of this experience, there are a maximum of 18 seats available. The address and parking` information will be provided to registered guests 3 days prior to the dinner, via an auto-generated email from the registration system. This event will be held inside. There is no preplanned overnight option for ARCANE 15, though there are a wide variety of hotels nearby. Please note, we will be pouring a minimum of 20 bottles of wine for this event, more than 1 bottle per person. Please do not plan to drive. If you do plan to drive, please let us know in advance so we can limit your pour size.

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired pairing, prepared by Chef ARCANE. Chef specializes in pairing food with wine with a slightly different approach than most. The ARCANE menu is crafted around the contents of the glass for the adventurous eater, with fork and knife in hand. ARCANE menus are created Farm to Table, due to this, menus are not provided early.
