We are excited to offer our first Foodie Experience at Cypress, Pensacola!
Cypress is a casual, elegant eatery serving coastal cuisine.
The Foodie Experience was designed to expose members to new locations, new food and new experiences. Our gatherings are centered around a group meal held at different locations throughout Pensacola where we experience the authentic food each establishment has to offer. Our goal is to experience each location for what it has to offer the area and to share our love of great food and comradery as we try the local fare.
The evening will commence with appetizers for the table to share. Charcuterie boards with meats and cheeses, as well as each person getting the daily chef’s selection of a small bite (amuse bouche) at each seat.
Each person will then have a choice of soup or green salad.
The dinner choices are listed below. Each seat will need to select their dinner choice when purchasing ticket(s). Dinner selection(s) can be emailed to TheFoodieExperiencePensacola@gmail.com
1) Yellowfin Tuna #1 - pan roasted vegetables, whole grain mustard soy reduction
2) Pasticcio - a veal, pork and beef mixture layered with ricotta and tomato sauce with house made pasta - think elevated lasagna
3) Roasted and sliced beef tenderloin with house mashed potatoes asparagus and béarnaise
4) Cajun shrimp Étouffée with rice
**Vegetarian option of gnocchi is also available on request
After dinner there will be a selection of bread pudding, lemon bar or German chocolate pecan pie.
The price of dinner also includes soda, tea or water. The establishment will also have a drink special for $5 (which will be announced that evening) and select wines by the glass for $6 - Those options and any other drinks desired with dinner would be a cash bar option.
Tickets for this Foodie Experience are sold individually for $62.00. This price includes your meal, taxes and 16% gratuity. Ticket sales website will then add their service fees on top of that event fee.
Your organizer would also like to ask and encourage each individual to bring additional cash with them to the event, as it would be nice to leave the wait staff and cook(s) an additional cash tip if you should feel your meal and experience is exemplary. Our goal is to make this a wonderful experience for both sides of the table!
