This is THE dinner of the trip. Hundreds of real candles, a vine-covered terrace over the church dome, cliffside to the sea, live guitar and mandolin. One Michelin star. Confirmed in Halen's name.
Dress: smart casual, no shorts, tank tops, or baseball caps — jackets welcome but not required. Nightcap after at Don't Worry Bar downstairs.
