Cherry Blossom Speakeasy

  • Shirt Factory 115 West Center Street Medina, NY, 14103 United States (map)

The first Speakeasy of the year has been set!  Join us for an intimate and immersive evening featuring a collaborative dining event with guest chef Lionel Heydel, Factory chef David Gawron, and bar manager Chris Kozody, who have crafted an extraordinary blossom-inspired experience to help kick off our Cherry Blossom/Pink Party Pop-Up, March 20th-April 27th. 

Inspired by the hidden speakeasies of the 1920s, when the Shirt Factory thrived under Robert Newell, this event will transport you to a time of elegance, indulgence, and secrecy. Enjoy a carefully curated five-course tasting menu by candlelight, set against the backdrop of jazz and the spirit of the Roaring Twenties. To preserve the atmosphere, all windows will be draped for the privacy of our clients.

The following is a sketch of that night’s menu:

First course: Hiyayakko & Miso Soup

Second course:  Dragon Roll 

Third Course: Okonomiyaki and Katsu Chicken

Fourth Course: Beef  Yakitori

Fifth Course:  Japanese Shu-Cream

Your ticket includes this 5 course chef’s tasting menu, and includes tax and gratuity. All cocktails are available for purchase A LA CARTE that evening.

Seating Options: Choose between 5:00 PM or 7:30 PM.

Cocktails: Available for purchase, exclusively for this event.
