Milk Room NYE
Paul McGee has dreamed up a very special New Year’s Eve experience in Milk Room, our eight seat microbar in the Chicago Athletic Association specializing in very rare and vintage spirits. Guests will be able to choose two cocktails from either a special champagne focused menu or an American whiskey focused menu, in addition to a welcome amuse and a send-off glass of egg nog made with 1908 Blandy’s Bual Madeira.Executive Chef Pete Coenen has also created an assortment of elegant shared bites to accompany the drinks, including Kumamoto oysters and a pate, cheese, and charcuterie plate.
Tickets for this experience are $250 per person – view the full cocktail menu below and book your reservations here.
