Please join the Bailliage of Greater Washington, DC as we venture to our annual summer sojourn. This year, we have two destinations:

We will begin our culinary adventure with a stop at True Treats Candy in Harpers Ferry, WV, only about an hour from Washington, DC. Susan Benjamin, Culinary Historian and shop owner will take us down memory lane (in the sweetest way) at noon. Susan will guide our exploration of the history of candy in the United States. The next part of our sojourn will take place about 15 minutes away in Shepherdstown, WV at Bistro 112 at 1:30pm. There we will enjoy a multicourse elegant luncheon created by Maître Rôtisseur Chef Paul Stearman. Many of you may remember that Paul was the Chef de Cuisine at Marcel’s in DC for 18 years. Our afternoon at Bistro 112 begins with a bubbling reception on a lovely outdoor patio (weather permitting) followed by a delicious meal in the dining room with wine paired by the chef.

Join the Bailliage of Greater Washington, D.C. for an exclusive farm-to-table dinner at Alias Restaurant, nestled in Vint Hill, just outside of Warrenton, VA. This acclaimed fine-dining destination has earned rave reviews, with Washington Post critic Tom Sietsema highlighting it as a “sublime [culinary] entertainment” experience. He compares its caliber to renowned Northern Virginia culinary gems like The Inn at Little Washington and The Restaurant at Patowmack Farm.

We’ve secured the entire restaurant for our private event on a Sunday evening this September, ensuring we fully experience the bounty of the harvest season. At 6:30 PM, our dining adventure begins with a champagne reception and passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by an exceptional multi-course dinner with paired wine. The talented chef and his attentive team provide a warm and hospitable experience, with a menu that evolves every few weeks to feature the freshest seasonal ingredients.

Located just an hour from Washington, D.C., Alias is easily accessible. We’ve chosen Sunday to avoid weekday rush-hour traffic, with I-66 express lanes making the drive comparable to a typical suburban commute into the city. This is a truly special culinary experience not to be missed! With only 30 seats available, we encourage you to register promptly to secure your spot.
