David Burke Steak Dinner At Foxwood's "Extraordinary Eats" Month

David Burke Steak Dinner At Foxwood's "Extraordinary Eats" Month

The flavors of fall have been on the agenda all October long at Foxwoods, during the casino's month-long Extraordinary Eats celebration. This weekend things get especially tasty at David Burke Prime Steakhouse as the celebrity chef known for his whimsical, theatrical style is on hand to host several epicurean events at his Foxwoods location. 

Clambakes, steaks, and more

Things kick off Friday night with a Connecticut clambake featuring locally-sourced seafood cooked the way we all love it -- clambake style. Tickets are $99 per person and dinner is served at 7:30. Saturday night, Burke's prime, dry-aged steaks steal the show for October Prime & Wine, a multi-course dinner featuring wine pairings from Moet and other distinctive vineyards. Tickets for this dinner are $115 each and seating is at 7:30. Wind down with the Chef's signature brunch on Sunday, featuring prime rib, a seafood bar, and a free David Burke 5-inch Santoku knife for each guest. Brunch runs from 10 am - 2 pm and is $39 per person. Reservations can be made for all the weekend's events by calling 860-312-8753.

This weekend I will be looking forward to, and attending, the Saturday night steak dinner. The seafood starters including an oyster and shrimp Rockefeller and a crackling calamari Caesar salad have piqued my interest. Having dined and adored meals at David Burke Prime before, my mouth is watering for the 40 day dry-aged sirloin steak. The huge aging room that is on site is sure to provide only the best cuts and cures that are available.
