Metropolis Events conducts quarterly group menu tastings. Your Event Planner will advise which date will be available for you to attend based on the seasonal menu which will be applicable for your wedding date.

The menu tasting will give you the opportunity to sample a variety of dishes personally selected by our Head Chef to give you an indication of the quality, portion sizes and presentation of our dishes and the opportunity to sample our beverage packages.

The group menu tasting is extended to the wedding couple only. Once RSVP’s have been received, there may be the opportunity to open up the tasting to include a limited number of additional guests upon request.
