MOVIE- WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER (2001)-Set on the last day of camp, in the hot summer of 1981, "Wet Hot American Summer" follows a group of counselors who are each trying to complete their unfinished business before the day ends. The entire summer of pent-up sexual frustrations, unresolved post-traumatic stress, pending separations and of course, the talent show, all weigh heavily on the minds and groins of counselors and campers alike.
FOOD- CHEF RISA LICHTMAN OF LEPAGE FOOD & DRINKS
MENU- SABICH & SALAD- a pita sandwich with fried eggplant, pickles, egg, green tahini & amba. served with an herby side salad with sumac vinaigrette. (vegan & GF options available)
DESSERT- OMIJA HOME BAKES
MENU-
- Strawberry, balsamic vinegar, and chocolate parfait
- Injeolmi (sweet rice cakes) with cherries, toasted sesame crumble, and maple cream (vegan & g/f)

Omija Home Bakes is Laina's love letter to the magic of home baking & shared moments of sweetness. Most inspired by Korean & Jewish flavors and desserts, Laina's treats are often filled with personal meaning and connection to her identities. You can expect thoughtful, complex flavor combinations and lots of enthusiasm. When she's not dreaming up or testing new bakes, she's around town working as a social worker and otherwise being a big ole gay.
