VISUAL ARTS + MUSEUMS

The Houston Museum of Natural Science presents a Cultural Feast Dinner - Imperial Dining with the Tsars,  Tuesday, March 23. 

Starting with Peter the Great in 1698, embraced by Catherine the Great and continued through the Romanov Dynasty, the royal Russian chefs perfected French culinary techniques using native Russian ingredients creating a unique Franco-Russian style of cuisine. This evening’s spectacular Franco-Russian tasting menu will be served in the beautiful Grand Salon of La Colombe d’Or. The Grand Salon is adorned with the intricately carved wood paneling, which originally decorated the ballroom of a French chateau. In this ballroom on the eve of World War I, Tsar Nicholas II (pictured) attended one of the last European royal galas.

Explore world cultures through a fine dining experience with the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Our series of Cultural Feasts offer the unique opportunity delve deeper into the Museum’s special exhibitions through the unique tastes of a new culture.
