Calypso Curated Rum Dinner
About this Event
Join us at Calypso for an immersive five-course Caribbean-inspired dinner, where bold island flavors meet taste-forward, rum-anchored cocktails.
Set in the Horizon Room at The Waterfront Inn, this one-night culinary experience takes your palate on a tropical flavor journey through five chef-curated creations, each thoughtfully paired with a rum-forward cocktail designed to complement every bite.
Begin with bright citrus and crisp white rum before moving through vibrant seafood, Caribbean spice, slow-cooked richness, aged rum, and a decadent island-inspired finale.
