Yes, it’s still February and Valentine’s Day is just passed but it’s time to start thinking ahead, people. Before you know it, St. Patrick’s Day will be standing over us wielding a big ol’ shillelagh.
The Whiskey, the Sand Lake Road restaurant and bar, can not only help you with your early St. Patrick’s Day plans but also help you get the jump of the actual events with its Luck of the Irish St. Patrick’s Day kickoff dinner.
The event will be Monday, March 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Restaurant Row venue. Tickets are $95 per person and seating is limited to 56 guests. Purchase tickets here.
The evening will feature a four-course dinner with pairings from Redbreast Single Pot Still’s catalog of Irish whiskeys. Attendees will also receive a Redbreast Glencairn glass & hat. The Whiskey folks are also promising chances to win other prizes.
More fun than you can shake a stick at.

Course 1: Irish flag salad, spinach with pear, mandarin orange, feta, pistachio and dried cranberry
Course 2: Shepherd’s pie with corned beef
