Friends, we have a special holiday story we’d like to share.
A story 40 years in the making.
Direct from Chinatown in 1984.
A tale of holiday joy, fuzzy creatures, green death and destruction...
Tenacious Eats and Work & Leisure are celebrating the 40th Anniversary of 1984’s
holiday classic “Gremlins”!
Yes, join us in celebrating 40 years of dark, holiday chaos, 80’s haircuts, unhealthy
lifestyles and downright American hubris! Shag carpets, incredible violence in a PG film
and Corey Feldman when he had a bowl cut.
Come join the fun and enjoy the film, 5 courses served during the film, specialty
cocktails, 80’s film trivia, costume contest, door prizes and your own personal Mogwai
direct from Mr. Wing’s Emporium! (Just kidding or ARE we?)

By integrating film and food, Movies for Foodies creates an original experience, a
feast for the senses, an event that brings food and film, chefs and diners together.
We only work with locally produced food procured by us and hard-to-find
ingredients, imported from places that specialize in them. With each new film, we
write a new menu specific to its story. Sometimes the menu is literal and
sometimes it is inspired by interpretation. In all cases, each dining experience is
different because each film is different.
No dress code. Costumes are always encouraged and rewarded!
