Manasseh’s Table Private Dinner Experience

Welcome to Manasseh’s Table Private Dinner Experience happening at 1010 St Paul St on August 15, 2025 at 6:00 PM (Eastern Daylight Time).

🍽️ Manasseh’s Table: The First Gathering

A story told in four courses — of heritage remembered, flavors reborn, and a new legacy beginning.

⸻

The Return

Suya-spiced onion and pepper soup with provolone & garlic bread

This is where comfort lives — in the fire of pepper soup, in the memory of kitchens filled with steam and stories. Suya spices whisper of home, while provolone and garlic bread invite the unfamiliar to stay a while. Before we can move forward, we return. A fresh welcome. A spicy start. A return to the table

⸻

Our Roots

Crisp matzo topped with spiced melon and grilled suya beef

Before we can move forward, we return. This dish honors the sweetness of what we’ve carried from generations before us — suya from the West African streets that raised us, and matzo from the ancient tables where resilience was first tasted. A course that reminds us: our roots are strong, but they’re not rigid.

⸻

The Healing

Pomegranate-glazed lamb shank over jollof rice

The body of the meal, where the past meets the possible. Slow-braised lamb offers softness and strength, wrapped in the sweetness of pomegranate — a symbol of life and healing. All resting on jollof, the ever-faithful dish that nourished nations and reunions alike. This is a celebration of overcoming, rebuilding, and becoming whole again.

⸻

The Finale

Manasseh’s Brûlée — crème brûlée nestled in caramelized banana

The story ends where all good ones do — in sweetness and light. Banana, familiar and humble. Crème brûlée, delicate and indulgent. Together, they mark the promise of a new chapter: a son on the way, a dream reimagined, a legacy just beginning. This is for Manasseh — our finale, our future.

Info: Begin the evening with a signature cocktail, and feel free to bring your own bottle - corks will be provided.
