Every country has a story that can be told through its cooking. To experience that story, all you have to do is taste the lost dishes that sustained those who came before us. Our country has an incredible culinary diversity across its states; but it also has an incredible depth through the centuries. America Eats Tavern is a place where you can travel through time to find the moment when our American identity was forged in a pot, skillet and bowl. This is your opportunity to host a special event with sophisticated and satisfying cuisine by renowned chef José Andrés.
