POP POP : The restlessly creative minds behind pop-up experiences such as 36 Courses (Wu-Tang themed dinner), I Think You Should Eat, and a Jewel Runner's Supper are back with a brand-new culinary adventure, Serious Gourmet Sh*t: A Quentin Tarantino Themed New Year’s Eve Costume Party.

The event will feature a 10-course roaming dinner that brings together some of the Seattle area's most innovative chefs (Khamnpaeng Panyathong of Taurus Ox, Steven Ono of Ono Poke, Avery Hardin of Layers, Luis Brambila of Bar Dojo, and more), each creating a dish representing one of Tarantino's films. Ethan Stowell Restaurants will be creating a drink menu inspired by the director's entire filmography.

In true POP POP fashion, you can expect even more than mind-blowing food and drinks: there will also be live experiences, photo booths, costume contests, and plenty of other surprises.

And it wouldn't be a NYE party without some tunes, so Seattle-favorite DJ Indica Jones will be spinning music downstairs at the Jack Rabbit Slim'sDance Party.
