The Amuse event for social foodies is back.

The eighth annual event will return this March after taking a break for the pandemic, and this year’s night out will take place at an interesting new venue: KF Aerospace Centre for Excellence.

Attendees pay a single admission fee and can eat and drink everything the area’s top chefs and winemakers will create for the event.

“It’s a cocktail party, a fine dinner at the best local restaurant, a night on the town with friends and a bit of dancing all rolled into one,” Amuse event director Holly Dober said in a press release.

Amuse will feature its largest and broadest presenter list so far, with Kelowna’s best chefs, winemakers and mixologists taking part.

“All presenters are leaders in their field and will participate in a friendly competition in the categories of best bite, best sip and best pairing,” Dober said. “Attendees get in the fun by casting their vote for people’s choice in each of the three categories. Everyone is a food and drink connoisseur. People love the opportunity to vote for their favourites.”

Amuse, which supports the Okanagan Chefs Association, will be held Saturday, March 4.
