The Plaza’s event planners have long prepared for a summer program of entertainment–-a kind of nightclub–under the stars.
For this night, as you enter at 5 p.m., enjoy cocktails, wine or beer and browse the opportunity baskets before finding your seats. Dinner service begins at 6 p.m.
Catered by restaurants Regina’s of Garden Grove and El Gaucho of Anaheim, the menu offers a full Argentinian dining experience, beginning with appetizers, then a course of six different meats served en parrilla, ending with a light, refreshing dessert. To add a little extra decadence to your dining experience, local bakeries have donated lush desserts for auction. Beverages are available from the bar, however, those who reserve a table get a complimentary bottle of Argentinian Malbec.
Then after the food, the show begins.
Gabriela Crowe, popular Argentian entertainer, and her production company bring the songs and dances – the Tango, the Vals, Milonga, Zamba and the Chacarera – with all the color, rhythm and romance of this exotic country.
Tickets are available at the Plaza office, located at 10961 Reagan St., during office hours or at Paypal via the Plaza’s website: stisidorehistoricalplaza.org/events.
Call the Plaza office at 562-596-9918 for questions or reservations.
