  Award-Winning Food

  We've just tasted the menu items for our 11th annual Kentucky Derby Gala and we are salivating! Do you have a craving for crab cakes, margherita and chorizo flatbreads, turkey club sandwiches, roasted vegetables and dips, fig and goat cheese bruschetta, and of course, a refreshing mint julep? You have to show up to eat.

Enjoy a wide selection of Derby-themed hors d’oeuvres and desserts prepared by Grand Street Cafe’s outstanding chef.

All guests have an all inclusive ticket for soft drinks, beer, wine and cocktails, so enjoy yourself and get in the spirit – sip a Mint Julep or delicious Oaks Lily!
