BIG NIGHT

Saturday November 9th, 5:30PM

Celebrating publication of WHAT I ATE IN ONE YEAR (and related thoughts), by Stanley Tucci

Lifetimes ago, we watched the iconic indie food movie written and directed by Stanley Tucci, Big Night. It’s the story of two Italian brothers (played by Stanley Tucci and Tony Shalhoub), with a restaurant that serves traditional Italian food for a dubious 1960s New York public. Across the street, the guy who’s doing a side of meatballs with everything is killing it. (He’s also married to the stunning Isabella Rossellini.) The solution? 

Word gets out that jazz singer Louis Prima is in town, and coming to the brother’s restaurant for a make-or-break dinner to end all dinners— a very big night.

And what a dinner it was. Starting with martinis, ending with a fistfight, with a great big timpano and dancing in the middle. We’ve thought about, loved, and recommended this movie for almost 30 years.

In celebration of Stanley Tucci’s new memoir, WHAT I ATE IN ONE YEAR, we’re recreating the meal from the film, course by loving course. 

Join Chef Teryi Youngblood of Camilla Kitchen and Christina Barest of Naked Pasta for a very big night. Each dish will be paired with Italian wines from Mission Grape, and each ticket (or couple’s ticket) includes a copy of the book. Seats are very limited. Conga lines are optional.

 

Cocktail attire encouraged. 

Individual ticket $165

Couples ticket (one book) $300
