Around the World Thursday

Morocco. Forty Two at the Clinton Presidential Center (whew, long name), a shape-shifting restaurant located in the basement of the Clinton Library recently held a Moroccan themed dinner/night of entertainment. Around the World Thursday, as the events are called, have been cooking for quite a while. here’s the 411; the third thursday of each month, Forty Two holds a reservation-only, themed dinner night. doors open at 6:30p, dinner is served at 7p. the dinner cost $27.95 and includes; 1 glass of wine or soft beverage, a 5-course meal, live music and perhaps a show. this evening kicked off with mike selig (ex chef/owner of tits-up Vermillion) introducing chef jason peck and describing the evening as a “version” of Morocco. a solo guitarist played throughout the dinner but a grand finale belly dancer stole the show. food and entertainment lasted until nearly 10p. the food was definitely different ~ a culinary adventure, for sure. i could describe each dish, but, since this was one night in morocco, & chances are, you’re not going to be able to order up any of the dishes for yourself, i will just say that the evening’s experiences enticed me to try another Around the World Thursday. go on, do something different. i’ve already reserved my spot for a future 3 thursdays.
