Taking its cue from European predecessors who enjoy challenging the typical food experience, dark dining removes the visual dimension. Walk in, get blindfolded, and expand your experience by eliminating a sense most people heavily rely on to judge a meal.

Here's some publicity, said as well as anyone could:

Join Natasha's for an imaginative and creative Kentucky Proud menu, prepared especially for the senses of smell, taste, sound, and texture. After each course, participants will be invited to remove their blindfolds to see what they have been eating.

The concept of "Dark Dining," which enjoyed significant popularity throughout Europe for several years before its introduction in various major cities throughout the United States, has been defined as "a sensory overload that maximizes flavor by suppressing vision, creating the ultimate in dining experience."

The IdeaFestival has hosted several "Lights Out Dinners" in Louisville from 2008 to 2012. "Dining in the Dark at Natasha's" makes its Lexington debut on August 22 especially for IF University.

This is an exclusive event, prepared by Natasha's and sponsored by the Idea Festival University
