The New Heights of Fine Dining

MOROCCO MEETS MOJAVE UNDER MOONLIGHT

The North African desert meets The Mojave this fall when High Dining presents its fourth Moonlit Moveable Feast on Saturday, September 22, 2018. Enter an exotic world of enchantment, education and epicurean delight. Recently returned from Marrakesh, Chef Sabrina Eustis is preparing a menu starring four luxurious Moroccan-inspired courses of cannabis-infused haute cuisine during this intimate dinner party adventure.

High Dining takes the subtle and complex nature of cannabis and creates an art form around cannabis-infused fine dining in one of the world’s most inspirational settings. It shuns the emphasis on getting as high as possible in favor of a refined approach to creating elevated mood states that will enchant and inspire you. 

Moonlit Moveable Feast takes place, first of all, only on a full moon, outdoors in the legendary pastel colored deserts of Joshua Tree California. Meticulously art directed in every detail, the Feast indulges all your senses from the moment you arrive - live glass blowing, performers, artists, installations and musicians, all in a venue famous for its lavish eclecticism.

Nestled in the pastel desert dunes underneath the serious moonlight, a greater mission will also be at play: cannabis education. Cannabis activist and Experience Creator for High Dining Barbie Sommars says “Along with legalization comes many questions about the herb and its properties, as well as interest in cannabis culture itself. We've invited a collection of knowledgeable educators from various corners of the cannabis community to provide the perfect welcome.”
