We’ll be back soon. For now, get a taste of Chef J’s delicious food at his new restaurant, Forager’s City Table. I just got back from working on an art/film installation at the Cameron Art Museum in North Carolina. I’m currently in Philly working with Epic Eats’ dear friend, Laurel Klein, with her Cafe Olam project!
We miss you!

I love seeing people build friendships and bond over a night of delicious food. It’s the reason I started Epic Eats with Chef J. Food is a wonderful experience that should be shared.
Our dear friend, Laurel Klein, is a true visionary when it comes to this very idea. We’ve had the immense pleasure of working with Laurel at an initial support dinner for her new project, Cafe Olam, in Philly. Imagine a community center that is also a theater, bar, art gallery, coffee mecca and much more.
We support Laurel and we hope you will too! All we’re asking for is $5 from our Epic Eaters. Give a little to the concept of delicious community!
Give at Jewcer.

Hello Epic Eaters,
Sorry we have been a mia! We have had a couple very busy months. Lady A is planning another wedding and Chef J was hired as the sous chef at a new restaurant in Chelsea. Unfortunately we haven’t had much time for our elaborate dinner party schemes. Hold tight, we’re working on giving you something great for the fall!

Sorry Kids, we’re all booked up for September. The October Supper invite is right around the corner. Keep an eye out and book early!
It’s time to pull out your cashmere, people. We love fall! How amazing will it be to take that bulky air conditioner out of your window and wrap a lovely scarf around your neck? We can’t wait! Chef J is planning a divine meal with rich and comforting flavors bound to make you feel warm and fuzzy. Look out for invites next week!
Well, we fought tooth and nail for this party but the space has flooded. Our deepest apologies to everyone who made plans to come hang with us today. This is a sad day for us but there will be many more great events (in doors). We’re working on reimbursing everyone. XO!
We are all set to party tomorrow! The space has been set up with giant tents to keep you dry. If you haven’t heard through the grapevine, we have an amazing piano player set to perform for you tomorrow at the event. He plays from 5-9. I know it’s delivery and Mad Men marathon weather but you aren’t going to want to miss this! You can purchase tickets still online or pay at the door. Can’t wait to see you all!
Xo,
Lady A
