Five years ago, Comal's executive chef Matt Gandin coined the name Oaxanukkah as a mash-up of two words: Oaxaca (Comal's biggest culinary inspiration) and Hanukkah. As the name suggests, the annual Oaxanukkah Dinners at Comal bring two disparate culinary styles -- traditional Hanukkah dishes and Gandin's signature Mexican style -- together for a celebratory, family-style meal.
The 5th annual installment of these multi-course family-style dinners will take place in Abajo, Comal's intimate private dining room, on Sunday, December 22nd and Monday, December 23rd. While a menorah will be lit, this is first and foremost a fun cultural celebration.
The dinners will start promptly at 6:30 pm. Seatings are limited to 22 diners per night, and based on previous years, tickets are expected to sell out fast.
Tickets are $80 per person (service charge included - beverages and tax excluded).
