A jolly festive edition of Dining in the Dark is coming to Brisbane and diners can expect a brand-spanking new menu with a Christmas twist!

The absence of distractions promotes the idea that eating in the dark heightens diner’s senses making for a more pleasurable experience. The focus is instead on taste, smell, mouthfeel and sound, as well as promoting the art of conversation.

Diners will enter a warmly lit room and will be accompanied by waiters and seated before being blindfolded and plunged into total darkness to enjoy this unique culinary experience with a sprinkle of Christmas! Enjoy all the best festive classics, a tasty and unique festive menu and more surprises lurking in the shadows. This Christmas Edition is the gift that keeps on giving.

There will be three main dish options (meat, fish and vegetarian) and although the menu is secret, dietary requirements and allergies can be catered for. Diners will also be able to order their favourite festive tipples to accompany their food before entering the dark dining room.

Each dining experience lasts 90 minutes, giving diners ample time to get comfortable with their new surroundings and enjoy a delicious two-course meal with a drink, blindfolded all whilst enjoying the spirit of Christmas. The Pitch Black Christmas Edition event will run on the December 16.
