BRIDGEPORT — Patrons at Nana Organic's upcoming Dia De Los Muertos dinner don't have to dress up in full regalia or bring mementos honoring their late loved ones, but it's all part of the fun.
"We're not stressing it as much as we did last year. Some people did it but it wasn't as popular as we thought it might be, but we do have the altar set up and we're welcoming people to bring in little mementos and photos ... and people are welcomed to dress up if they like," said restaurant spokeswoman Audri Simonelli.
The $40 per-person feast takes place at 7 p.m. Saturday at the restaurant, 3267 S. Halsted St., and includes a four-course meal and cocktail pairings for each course.
New Nana chef Jeremy Kiens is kicking out seasonal inspired dishes like a smoky pumpkin soup, braised lamb tostada, duck confit flautas and orange rice pudding served with pumpkin atole.
More details on the menu are available on the restaurant's website.
