Join us for the ultimate locally sourced Adventure Dinner at a Charlotte restaurant named one of the best 100 restaurants in America by Open Table. Many restaurants call themselves farm-to-table, but when you get down to details they source many ingredients outside the local area. Chef Clark Barlow’s Heirloom restaurant is set apart in that they source every ingredient but one from North Carolina. Chef Clark has put together for us this spectacular one night only menu, highlighting the best of North Carolina cuisine. With purchase of your ticket, enjoy six courses plus a glass of wine for just $44.99. Note: tickets must be purchased in advance of the event; no tickets will be sold at the door.
