-1 for adventure dinner. Had a valentine's dinner with my wife through adventure dinner. It was offensively overpriced even accounting for the valentine's day premium, most dishes came out lukewarm, we left hungry. Diners were pissed; one couple got up before the last course to cut their losses. My wife (who is herself a head chef at a popular farm to table restaurant in VT) tried to reach out charitably to give feedback about what went wrong, never heard back, not even a thanks for your feedback. They contract with chefs and venues, but are not themselves preparing or doing logistics, so inconsistent. And when it does go wrong, you're going to be out in the cold with a hole in your wallet.

Tldr; don't do adventure dinner. High prices guaranteed, but quality control is ymmv.

Hm, ok thanks for feedback. I looked at the website and it's a fun idea but probs out of reach for this kind of thing -- looks like $3500 and up to start with for private events.

That’s too bad. We have a new baby now, so I mostly lust after fancy food on instagram these days rather than actually go out. I’ll be lucky if we get take out and nice wine this Valentine’s Day. 😂
