151 W. 34 St., 8th fl.
Think Kentucky and bourbon as you join executive chef Michael Paley of Louisville's Proof on Main for a celebration of the harvest with five courses of fresh, locally sourced, Southern-influenced Italian cuisine paired with Kentucky's finest. Listen in as Heaven Hill Distilleries' American Whiskey Brand Ambassador Robert Hutchins takes you through a flight of bourbon, while chef Paley prepares dishes like yellowfin tuna crudo with assorted small tomatoes and basils, avocado and feta; raviolo al uovo with eggplant confit, Parmigiano and toasted sesame seeds; and bison tenderloin with simmered leeks, olive oil poached potatoes and sea salt. If at the end of the night you're not a bourbon aficionado, you may not have tasted enough; but more likely you may have tasted too much.
