On January 29th, the Three Musketeers will be crusading their way into Sencha’s dining room. To celebrate this occasion they will be serving five fantastic French courses paired with five fruity French wines. Of course there is a tariff to pay…$65 per person not including the King’s levy and subsidy for the poor servants. Reservations are recommended to call 719-632-8287 and tell them how many attendees will be coming with you. You don’t want to miss out on the sword fight with men in tights!

6. TRUFFLES, TRUFFLES AND MORE TRUFFLES AT BLACK BEAR RESTAURANT
The most expensive and incredible (and famous) food item in the entire world is without a doubt, TRUFFLES. They are the hallmark of truly great master dishes and world-class restaurants, and though popular in New York and Europe, they are extremely rare to find at any restaurant in Colorado. There are two kinds: the black from Southern France, and the white from Northern Italy. They run between $900 and $2000 a pound, yet by the time we receive them in America they have a shelf life of a week or less...this is why we almost never see fresh truffles here in Colorado. Perhaps the Black Bear Restaurant's most legendary chef's table experience is called the "Black and White" Dinner. One night each January we attempt to get BOTH black AND white truffles. This is impossibly expensive and as far as we know, no one else in or anywhere near Colorado has ever attempted to have BOTH black and white truffles in the house at the same time. To celebrate this experience we request that everyone wear black and white, finalizing the elegant theme (tuxedos are not required). This event is on Wednesday, January 18th at the Black Bear Restaurant. Call 719-684-9648 for more information or reservations.

Black Bear Restaurant is located at 10375 Ute Pass Ave, Green Mt. Falls CO
