Prohibition Dinner at Baker Street Steakhouse

It’s always fun when you get to collaborate with a great Chef for a great group of people and celebrate one of the most infamous times in American history. We recently had an opportunity to work with Chef Chad Kyle of Baker Street Steakhouse pairing 5 cocktail with 5 amazing dishes for 50 lucky diners in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Unfortunately I was so busy shaking and stirring I didn’t get to take any pictures of the cocktails next to the dishes they were pared with but it was an amazing night of food cocktails. Here’s a copy of that nights menu with instructions on how to execute all of the cocktails we made that night at home. Feel free to reach out at zach@wilksandwilson.com if you have any questions.
