One Night Only: Celebrated chef Doug Katz at LD Terrace
If the recent flood of pop-up restaurants has taught us anything, it’s that there’s something particularly seductive about a dining experience that may not be available again next month, next week, or even tomorrow. They remind us to grab life by the horns and enjoy the pleasures available to us while we can, because let’s face it, sometimes we all need the little push that a time limit imposes to get off our comfy sofas and out into what the world has to offer.
Similar to the allure of the pop-up restaurant is the allure of the guest chef, who can transform a familiar restaurant, and whose residencies are always as short-lived, and as talked about afterwards. The shortest and most exciting of these is, of course, the one night engagement, and White Line Hotels edit Lesic Demitri Palace is offering one of these not-to-be-missed culinary events on the 25th of July with Doug Katz of Fire Food and Drink, repeatedly awarded as one of America’s best restaurants.
Katz’s philosophy of ”Simple food, sustainable practices, igniting the community” should be right at home at LD Terrace. Check out the menu and find out how to make reservations for the 2 sittings here, but be warned, you might find yourself booking a last minute trip to Korcula.
