  MAX SF Board Member Bruce Cecil invites MAX members to join him for an evening of dining at one of his favorite places, the sensual and extraordinary restaurant, Foreign Cinema. 

  Since 1999, Foreign Cinema remains a magical destination for local, national and international visitors as one San Francisco’s most enduring dining experiences. A San Francisco Chronicle “Top 100 Restaurant” for eighteen consecutive years, Chefs Gayle Pirie and John Clark’s collective visions weave food, wine, cocktails, film, and art gallery into one harmonious ambiance.  They have received multiple James Beard Foundation nominations for the “Best Chef: Pacific” and “Most Outstanding Restaurant” awards.  To view Foreign Cinema’s menu, please click here.

  This event is for MAX dues-paying members only.  Each MAX member will be responsible for paying for their food and drinks during the evening.

  Get ready for bourbon tasting!  Join us and sample fine bourbons and bourbon drinks, including the Kentucky Derby favorite, the Mint Julep.  For food, we will be serving Kentucky Derby burgoo (a stew unique to Kentucky and a meal in itself).

  This event will be held at a MAX member's glamorous penthouse on Telegraph Hill with sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate.  The fun starts at 3pm and continues to 7pm.

  Bruce Cecil and Philip Carberry are the MAX Hosts.  Bruce brings the regional expertise, as he is originally from Louisville Kentucky.  Bruce will share some of the interesting history of bourbon and of the Kentucky Derby.

  If you were fortunate to have attended one of the excellent wine tastings hosted by Joel Barish, you realize the high bar we are setting ourselves when we say we are aiming to provide an equally enjoyable and informative afternoon.
  

  We are limiting the number of attendees to 25, so don't miss out on this fabulous event. 

  The exact address will be sent a week in advance to those who register.

  The price is $25 for MAX dues-paying members, and $35 for others and guests.  

  Unfortunately, there can be no refunds because of the purchasing that must be accomplished before the party.

  All participants must be age 21 or older.
