Frannie & The Fox Announces New Italian Sensibilities Dinner Series
From November 19th through the 24th, Frannie & The Fox will host the “Italian Sensibilities Series,” a kitchen takeover featuring a guest chef from Rome. Frannie & The Fox chef Tim Morton will partner with the guest to “reinvent the classics during playful dinners.”
To launch the dinner series, the team will host Gabriele Muro, the Executive Chef of Ristorante Adelaide. Like Frannie & The Fox’s connection to Emeline, Ristorante Adelaide is also located within a hotel property, specifically Hotel Vilon, a 5-star luxury hotel in the heart of Rome.
“In the spirit of both Emeline and Frannie, we are continuously seeking adventure and looking for new ways to not only surprise our guests but delight them through curated experiences,” said Amanda McFarland, vice president of food & beverage at Makeready. “Our Italian Sensibilities Series is the perfect extension of this mission. We are thrilled to host Chef Muro here in Charleston and for our community to have the chance to experience his exceptional food. We can’t wait to share what he, Chef Morton and the Frannie & The Fox team create.”
Beginning November 19th, each dinner will feature a different menu and conclude with a special Italian-style Thanksgiving meal on November 24th. In addition to the various dining experiences, Emeline is further celebrating the collaboration by offering guests a special Italy in the Lowcountry package that will include overnight accommodations, two tickets to the November 20th “The Great Taste” five-course dining experience with Chef Muro and a welcome bottle of Italian wine.
