Morel Mushroom Dinner, June 10

Due to overwhelming interest, we’re excited to announce a second date has been added for Lake Park Bistro’s annual Morel Mushroom Dinner!

Morel mushrooms are a beloved sign of spring in Wisconsin, drawing professional foragers and weekend adventurers alike into the woods after a long winter in search of these elusive delicacies. Our team is thrilled to once again celebrate the season with this crowd-favorite event.

Executive Chef Amanda Langler has created an elegant five-course menu showcasing the unique flavors and versatility of morel mushrooms, while Certified Sommelier Mariana Popescu has selected five exceptional French wines from our cellar to complement each course.

Join us on Wednesday, June 10, our newly added second date for an unforgettable evening celebrating Wisconsin springtime and one of the season’s most treasured ingredients.
