Sherry is one of Spain’s most famous, yet most mysterious beverages. It’s what sommelier’s drink when they’re off-the-clock, and also probably what your grandma used to drink in her hay-day.

We explain what’s so special about how this wine is made, aged,  where it comes from (Jerez, Spain) and explore several classic dry and sweet styles. The evening includes a welcome cocktail made with sherry, a sommelier guided tasting of four sherries and some light Spanish nibbles for AED 300.

“The greatest threat to our oceans is the belief that someone else will save them”

‘An Environmentally Conscious Wine Project’ 

We have produced more plastic in the past 10 years than in the entire last century, 50% of which is considered ‘un-recyclable’, with an estimated 8 million tons ending up in the ocean annually affecting both sea life and human health alike.* At BOCA we recognize that tackling ocean conservation is more pressing than ever, and along with our friends and partners, we invite you for a night dedicated to this cause.

On November 27th join us as we host Jo Ruxton, producer of the multi-award-winning film ‘A Plastic Ocean’ and founder of the Plastic Oceans Foundation. Screening a twenty minute version of her 2016 documentary, the night will include a reception with sustainable movie snacks and beverages, followed by a zero waste dinner drawing attention to lesser known local produce and maximizing usage of our food paired with environmentally-conscious drinks.

Sponsored by MMI and 10th International, a family run organization dedicated to help tackle ocean pollution through the generation of funds to key environmental projects, the evening will also include an exhibition by local environmentalist Mariska Nell of Waste Me Not. We will also introduce our friends from the private equity firm PURE CE who aim to solve some of the world’s pressing environmental challenges through new technological investments, along with Kathrin Gnilka of 1001 Good Deeds; BOCA’s sustainability and climate-change awareness training partner.

On Tuesday, October 22^nd, 2019, BOCA invites you to celebrate the legendary tale of Jean Leon and BOCA’s five year anniversary at a quintessential 1950s dinner party. Flying in from the UK for one night only to perform live at this event are the vintage-style performers Rita and the Rogues.

JEAN LEON
The story of Jean Leon is that of a 19-year-old from Santander, Spain who went to New York where he worked as a cab driver, a busboy, and a waiter at Frank Sinatra’s restaurant. There he met the biggest stars from Paul Newman and Marilyn Monroe to Zsa Zsa Gabor and James Dean. With the latter, he opened La Scala in Beverly Hills. It became the top choice for the era’s biggest celebrities. Click to watch this 1 minute video about Jean Leon

MARILYN’S LAST MEAL
Jean Leon was a confidante of Hollywood heavyweights of the time and had many personal encounters with them; the most delicate being the last night of Marilyn’s life (August 5th, 1962). Marilyn most likely called him because she wanted to dine at home and he personally delivered one of her favorites: Fettuccini. In fact, every dish on the menu in his restaurant was named after a star.  One of the most memorable was, of course, the “Fettuccini Marilyn” which, as one might expect, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was particularly fond of…

For BOCA’s fifth year anniversary we have re-imagined a four-course menu from La Scala Restaurant had Marilyn decided to dine in rather than take out that night in 1962. Could things have ended differently?

Dishes will include Frank’s Foie Salad with haricots beans and truffle vinaigrette, Fettuccini Marilyn with clam & mussel velouté, and Striploin Tagliata a la Zsa Zsa with sun-dried heirloom tomato and Manchego cheese, all paired with recent vintages from Jean Leon’s estate in Penedès, Spain.
