And on Friday and Saturday nights in June, The Metropolitan Museum of Art is offering a Met Fashion show-inspired tasting menu. (Perfect for after your tour.) Like the Manus x Machina Met exhibition, it combines handmade with machine-made ingredients. The tasting includes ultra-rare tuna with sea vegetables, watermelon and wasabi. And just like our Feast Your Eyes Tour & Tastings, it can be complemented with a wine flight.

Many know that The Metropolitan Museum of Art is the perfect backdrop for blossoming romance. Given that, a client asked us to choose the best beautiful, yet hidden spot at a museum for him to propose to his fiancé-to-be. There are so many stunning rooms at the Met Museum, it is hard to choose only one. We narrowed it down to these gorgeous settings:

– Roman Courtyard
– Temple of Dendur
– Engelhard Courtyard
– European Sculpture Court
– King Louis XIV’s Bedroom
– Vanderlyn Hall’s Panoramic View of Versailles
– Chinese Garden Court
