NEW ORLEANS – Sac-a-Lait is teaming up with Sazerac Company and the United States Bartending Guild (USBG) to host a five-course Bourbon Dinner to raise funds for those affected by hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
Priced at $150 per person (all-inclusive), the spirited pairing dinner will take place on Thursday, Oct. 12, at Sac-a-Lait, 1051 Annunciation St., in the Warehouse District. The entrance is on John Churchill Chase Street.
