BASTILLE DAY
French Independence Dinner!
Bastille Day, the French national holiday, commemorates
the storming of the Bastille, which took place on
14 July 1789 and marked the beginning of the French
Revolution. The Bastille was a prison and a symbol of
the absolute and arbitrary power of Louis the 16th's
Ancient Regime. By capturing this symbol, the people
signaled that the king's power was no longer absolute:
power should be based on the Nation and be limited by
a separation of powers.
Chef Richard has just returned to
Columbus from his family home in
Lyon, France. He will be preparing
a delectable French four
course Dinner to serve on this day
of French Independence
Monday, July 14 , 2008
Four Courses
$55
A Flight of French Wines will be available to accompany this dinner.
