    Plated Pop-UPs: Hot Box Next Level Kitchen

    Tickets are now on sale for UP members


    Unpretentious Palate is excited to announce our new summer dinner series: Plated Pop-UPs! There is a lot of talent hidden in the ghost kitchens and food trucks of Charlotte. See what the city’s takeout and home delivery cooks are capable of in our latest series, Plated Pop-UPs!

    The series will feature three ticketed dinners which will be held at the beautiful Whitehead Manor & Conference Center. Each dinner brings a chef into a formal sit-down setting to serve a coursed meal – and show off their skills. Each course will be served with a beverage pairing.

    Series Schedule:

    Friday, July 22 featuring L’Ostrica
    Former Stagioni executive chef Eric Ferguson and food writer Cat Carter joined forces to create this pasta-focused home delivery and private event business during the pandemic.

    Thursday, August 25 featuring Patrick’s Gourmet
    Patrick Garrivier, the co-owner of now-closed yet still beloved French restaurant Aix on Provence, was born in France and worked for chefs such as Daniel Boulud. Patrick’s Gourmet delivers classic French cuisine to diners at home.

    Tuesday, September 20 featuring Hot Box
    The Hot Box is one of the city’s OG food trucks. With the slogan “Next Level Street Food,” chef Michael Bowling’s mobile restaurant brings complex flavors to takeout. Just wait until you see what he can do in a coursed meal.

    Location and Time:

    Each dinner will take place at Whitehead Manor and Conference Center (5901 Sardis Rd.) from 6 to 8:30 p.m.

    Tickets:
