Wine Dinner at La Luce Will Feature Virtual Reality

Written By Scott Joseph On December 23, 2019

 

La Luce2015 final 243x300 copyFor those of you who are able to look past the next few days and are already anticipating events in the New Year, consider the first wine dinner of 2020 at La Luce at Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creet.

The five-course dinner is Saturday, Jan. 18, at 6 p.m. and will feature pairings with Brancaia Wine. Cost is $175 per person plus tax and gratuity. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 407-597-3675 or emailing to [email protected].

And here’s an intriguing twist. According to information from the hotel: “During the evening’s wine experience, a small portion will be conducted via Virtual Reality goggles using YouTube technology. We ask that you come with the YouTube application downloaded on your smartphone in preparation of the festivitites.”

That certainly piques my curiosity.

Here’s chef de cuisine Alberto Navarette Arias’ menu for the evening:
