The setlist

Hell on heels

A concert’s vibe is amplified by the smoky atmosphere, matching the glam and spirit of attendees and performers alike; our surprise—tequila-soaked gummi dinosaurs—remixes the classic paloma with a smoky, punk twist, making it the perfect drink to complement any music genre and elevate tailgate cuisine.

We love runnin’ with other animals, in the kitchen or the jungle, and one of our favorite pack mates, the great Allison Walts, Executive Chef of the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in Syracuse, treats all critters just right. For the end of summer and beginning of fall, she loves to cook en papillote, a simple-yet-elegant cooking method, just like the beautiful flamingos this dish is inspired by. All you need is some parchment paper, shrimp or fish, some fresh veggies, a dash of wine, some butter and a dream. This old school French method of cooking is a great way to use any food you have laying around in your fridge, so get creative. We loved learning that flamingos’ colors are based on what they eat, and they love shrimp, and you will too after folding up some paper and setting up a nice, light and delicious dinner, perfect for this time of year. Butter, white wine, fresh shrimp and veggies? Whether you’re standing on one leg or not, you’re going to love this dish. We flocked to it.
