Carnivale Dinner Tickets Now on Sale!

The colors are brilliant, the mood is festive, and the music is hot. Oh, and I forgot to mention the food. I guess that’s what happens when you’re having so much fun.




Indeed, allergenistas, you can expect a little bit of heaven at the next Safe and Sound Dinner.

Carnivale's Chef Mark Mendez was up for the Safe and Sound challenge and is putting together a sensational, family-style menu free of the 8 major allergens plus gluten. Just one more time, please: the dinner is free of the 8 major allergens and gluten.

While the food alone would satisfy the most demanding allergenista, you’ll also have the opportunity to swap stories, learn how the staff at Carnivale went into overdrive to adapt their kitchen to assure there’s no cross-contamination, and take home a deluxe gift bag bursting with allergen-free treats to sample.

And here’s something to sweeten the deal: Swirlz Cupcakes is doing dessert! I heard a few rumblings about a Mojito cupcake. I can’t wait!
