CURATED 4-COURSE MENU

You’re in for a treat, what an incredible menu. Chef Cesar Zapata and Ani Meinhold have curated a four-course dinner showcasing Phuc Yea’s blend of unique, bold Southeast Asian and Latin flavors, all designed to be enjoyed family-style. As Ani mentioned, “Mixing temperature and acidity and crunch is very important to our dining experience.” They’ve organized a Vegan menu as well.

GOOD FOOD & CAMARADERIE !

Best part about these gatherings? Since I know most guests from my wok cooking classes or through networking, I’ll organize the seating with like minded people. Guests have said how much they enjoyed meeting new friends and had a great time at my past events. So, if you’re single, you won’t feel lonely! 

SPREAD THE WORD…

Share with work colleagues and friends you think would enjoy this one-of-a-kind dining experience which you wouldn’t get if you went on your own. It was specially created for this exclusive Wok Star Supper Club!

Highlights from Latest Wok Star Supper Club at RedFarm Miami

July 31, 2024 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

Here are Highlights from latest Wok Star Supper Club at RedFarm Miami with a Recap Reels below. An immersive dinner experience where guests were introduced to modern, inventive Chinese food with whimsical touches executed by RedFarm’s co-founder, dim sum master and Executive Chef, Joe Ng.

At the 12th Wok Star Supper Club, I had the chance to add an extra element to dining out! I mixed together people who I thought would share similar interests eg Masson Liang, a wedding photographer and his wife, Jessica coming for a date night with Poshan Rabade’s family and their two lovely and creative daughters! Also some singles at a communal table to make new friends.

How the evening unfolded…

The evening started with a refreshing oolong lychee cocktail 🍸! A surprise complimentary drink from RedFarm, thank you. Everyone LOVED it, great starter to set the tone for the dinner experience.

Next up, Jeff Goldin, Service Director shared a fascinating history of RedFarm followed by a 4-course sit down dinner. 

The three most popular dishes I kept hearing about? Dumplings, Filet Mignon, perfectly grilled and Chilean Seabass, melt in your mouth tender. 

Mango mousse, sorbet and Fresh Fruit Plate with Ginger Sauce were a wonderful end to an evening filled with camaraderie and good modern Chinese food! 

Last surprise? An adorable parting gift, a jar of Chili Oil, thank you RedFarm!

You were a fantastic host, RedFarm, a wonderful collaboration! I so enjoyed working with General Manager, Nicholas Scarnati.
