If you know me, you know I love to eat. That's why this calorie counting thing that I'm doing now is causing me to die a little bit each day. But on the flip side, like I posted a few weeks ago, I am down 20lbs, so at least it's working.
Coming up this Friday at BOKX109 is their "First Frost" Belvedere Vodka Dinner. And I'm telling you guys about it for a couple of reasons. First, I like vodka. My first choice is Chopin, but Belvedere's pretty good too. Second, the menu includes a lot of things that I hold dear to my heart like: scallops, wagyu beef, and Hudson Valley duck.
WHAT: BOKX 109 American Prime and Hotel Indigo are being iced over by the “First Frost” Belvedere Vodka Dinner on November 13th. BOKX 109 invites you to bundle up and enter their Winter Wonderland where guests will enjoy food stations perfectly created by Executive Chef Evan Percoco, chilled Belvedere vodka concoctions and music by DJ Sensae.

UPDATE: Looks like the press release I was sent had a typo. Per Bloggery Reader Hoppzor's comment, I checked the website and it says $85. Sorry folks.
UPDATE 2: I just got confirmation that the price is indeed $25. It was the website that was wrong, not the press release. Sorry for all this confusion.

Hi Hoppzor,
Thanks for the note. The press release I was sent had a typo on it that said $25. I've made the correction. I guess 25 would have been too good to be true.
Cheers,

Hi Hoppzor,
I just got confirmation that $25 is the correct price. It was originally $85 but it was changed last week to the lower price and the website was not updated.
Thanks,
BTB
