Fridays at elements: Music. Food. Spirits.

 
 
 

Kick off your summer weekend with “Fridays at elements,” the new weekly event featuring delectable dinner specialties by award-winning Chef Beau MacMillan...plus favorite wines and intriguing cocktails from the mixologists. Enjoy spectacular views and live music by Khani Cole from 8:30-11:30pm (no cover charge).

 


Recently returned from her European tour, Khani is known for smooth jazz vocals. Her three albums show the harmonic and lyrical depth that earned her an invitation to perform at the Hollywood Bowl with the legendary George Benson.

Dinner at elements provides a welcome opportunity to enjoy the cuisine of Food Network star Chef Beau MacMillan, whose accolades include a triumph over Bobby Flay on Iron Chef America as well as appearances on NBC’s Today Show and his Food Network show, Worst Cooks in America.

He brings his exciting culinary philosophy to elements...where his ingenuity in the kitchen is stimulated by his belief that food should not be overworked, but rather appreciated for its simplicity and natural perfection. Chef Beau’s innovative seasonal menus, like the one recently introduced for summer, focus on fresh, local ingredients procured from a network of artisans and organic farmers. His innovation has brought the resort national recognition and acclaim.

Part of that is from Sanctuary’s continual introduction of new and exciting culinary events, like this summer’s Prix Fixe dinner and the Summer Wine Sampler features half off select bottles of wine (excluding the reserve wine list) during lunch any day of the week, and for seating’s after 8pm Sunday-Wednesday when ordering from the regular or Prix Fixe menu at elements.


Lunch & Learn has become a favorite summer series, as Chef Beau introduces guests and locals to star chefs, wine makers and culinary experts. These Saturday lunch and dinner events during July and August include a three-course meal paired with wine or cocktails, along with lessons on how to prepare the culinary specialties, and recipes to take home.

A great way to celebrate the weekend, “Fridays at elements” is the latest in Sanctuary’s ever-changing series of music & food events which include the always popular Sunday Brunch. Returning this fall, “Sundays in Paradise” features an afternoon of hip and uniquely soulful music (no cover), matched with food & drink selections as spectacular as the surrounding vistas on the grassy lawn.
