Café Bacchus presents “Like Water For Chocolate” Dinner Feature Weekend


In conjunction with Chocolate Lover’s Day, Café Bacchus will feature the movie “Like Water for Chocolate”. The movie is based on a popular novel published in 1989 by Mexican novelist Laura Esquivel. “Like Water for Chocolate” is about two young lovers who struggle with their passion and forbidden romance during the turbulent times of the Mexican Revolution. The main character, Tita, releases her passion through cooking and the food that she creates manipulates the emotions of those who eat her incredible meals. As the story unfolds, Tita struggles with Pedro, her iron-fisted mother, and the many obstacles of life. The cinematography of the movie is incredible. This movie will make you hungry so Café Bacchus will recreate some of Tita’s dishes for our dinner feature.

Join us on Friday, April 16th or Saturday, April 17th We will show the movie in our large upstairs dining area. Bacchus is taking dinner and a movie to a whole new level - enjoy the movie while tasting the delicious featured recipes. Showtime will be 7 p.m.; however, the featured dinner is available during our dinner hours and will be served in addition to the regular menu. The cost is $40for the full dinner; individual courses are also available.
