SubCulture Dining's Dive and Dine

The promise of good food will get you to do pretty much anything, e.g., attend a cheesy but catered corporate team-building event, or not attack Guy Fieri with a bat with a nail through it. Or jump out of an airplane, thanks to SCD's Dive and Dine.

From the supper club who brought you last year's perviest meal, the second annual DnD's a totally gratuitous, all-inclusive day of skydiving coupled with gorging on bounteous amounts of grub so delicious, you may even hold it down. Early-morning day-of you'll be told of a clandestine drop zone in Davis, where you and 23 other "meat missiles" will do a quick safety course before taking off and deplaning at 14,000ft, with "body pilots" strapped to your backs (unless you're licensed to dive solo); land alive and you'll lunch on gourmet burgers/salads/etc and be told of a secret SF location where you'll reconvene later for dinner and intimate discussions of "OMG THAT WAS SO GODDAMN CRAZY!!!". The later meal will consist of six TBD courses, which will incorporate wine, beer, and whiskey pairings (plus fresh fruit/veggies SCD sources near the drop zone post-dive), and may resemble recent SCDeliciousness like grilled Angus liver w/ fondue of leek; poached chicken ravioli w/ chevre and balsamic butter; and burnt caramel-glazed, truffled meat pop tarts, which, coupled with OJ, half a grapefruit, and toast, are part of this complete dinner.

For dinner entertainment, SCD'll roll out a big projector with a video of dive footage -- exciting stuff for sure, but not nearly as good as your own footage in Guy Fieri's face.
