Le Creuset, an immersive dinner series collab with Secret Supper, is coming to Minneapolis!

Here’s how it works: Attendees purchase tickets knowing only the event date and the closest major city to the venue. Coordinates for the supper location are sent out 24 hours before the event, but the menu and bespoke details remain a secret until guests sit down at the table.  

The company typically works with renowned local chefs in each area to curate a regionally inspired menu with sustainable ingredients. At the last Minneapolis supper in January, Chef Yia Vang (of Union Hmong Kitchen and Vinai) curated three courses of Hmong cuisine alongside Basil Hayden cocktails and wine pairings at The Neu Neu in the North Loop. For dessert, the menu featured an inventive twist on the classic Minnesotan bake sale platter, with Miso scotcharoos, Szechuan coffee brownies, and Thai tea custard bars.

This tradition continues in the La Carte series, and while the upcoming Minneapolis chef will remain under wraps, a few prominent names come to mind: Will dinner guests be greeted with Korean American fusion from Chef Ann Kim? Or perhaps they will enjoy Southeast Asian dishes by Chef Christina Nguyen, who won the 2024 James Beard Award for Best Chef: Midwest. 

The series kicked off with a bang at the New York City event in June. Guests were welcomed to Brooklyn’s Prospect Park Boathouse with live music, drinks, and waterfront views before sitting down for a family-style dinner by private chef and cookbook author Gaby Dalkin. The fresh summer menu featured dishes like Stone Fruit Peach and Nectarine Panzanella, Charred Corn Summer Alpine Flatbread, and Grilled Tomahawk Steak.
