On Tuesday, Sept. 22, guests are invited to enjoy “An Evening of Decadence: Champagne and Chocolate Tastings” at Morton’s The Steakhouse in Louisville. Guests will arrive to a reception featuring Morton’s signature hors d’oeuvres and Piper Sonoma Brut. After the reception, guests will take part in a tasting experience with champagne and chocolate, using sensory vials that provide aromas to help distinguish flavor characteristics. The event runs from 6 to 7:30 p.m. and costs $45 per person. Due to limited seating, reservations are required. To save a seat, call 502-584-0421 or visit www.mortons.com/louisville and click the special events tab.
