BABs Bourbon Dinner with Garrison Brothers Distillery

BABs, the casually sophisticated culinary haven from nationally acclaimed Chef Nina Compton and husband/partner Larry Miller, is pleased to partner with Garrison Brothers Distillery, a family-owned bourbon distillery producing Texas straight bourbon. Chef Compton has created a special four-course menu especially created to pair with Garrison Brothers’ distinctive bourbons.  The event will take place on Thursday, March 21, from 5:30PM – 10PM.

Head Bartender Rick Powanda has created innovative specialty cocktails featuring Garrison Brothers spirits designed to complement Chef Compton’s dishes.  The menu, priced at $100 per person (excluding tax), follows:
