Six Unique Dining Experiences to Try in Orange County
1. Whiskey Tasting at The Blind Rabbit
While planning your next meeting in Anaheim, think outside the box when it comes to dining and entertainment. Meeting professionals can get the best of both worlds thanks to innovative restaurants and bars located across Orange County that pair stellar cuisine and spirits with an unforgettable group activity.
Step quietly and speak easy as you and your guests enter this hidden gem of a lounge in the Anaheim Packing House.
The intimate venue can be rented out for special events that are sure to dazzle even the most discerning VIPs.
A specialty of The Blind Rabbit is a whiskey-themed evening, which could include a signature drink upon arrival with several tastings and small bites to accompany.
Work with the events team to add an interactive element like a Whiskey 101 session, which dives into the history and flavor profile of the spirit. Then, guests are invited to roll up their sleeves and follow along in making their own unique cocktail.
3. Royal Disney Dining at 21 Royal
The ultimate Disney dining experience begins with a private escort to the Disneyland Park venue from the Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, which takes guests behind the scenes.
After arriving at the expansive suite above the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, enjoy a welcome cocktail and tour the suite that was once imagined as a private apartment for founder Walt Disney.
A seven-course meal with sommelier-guided wine pairings with epicurean delights like osetra caviar, Kobe beef and Périgord truffles. Each whimsically named course comes with a story from the chef.
While the package includes a private tour and priority access to 30 attractions, guests may also opt for a prime viewing position on the balcony overlooking Rivers of Americas for the Fantasmic! show or fireworks spectacular.
Book a special event at Orange County’s first craft distillery, which makes vodka, gin and whiskey on-site in Santa Ana.
Private functions can include a 30-minute behind-the-scenes tour of the production facility and an educational flight of Owl Spirits. After the tour, enjoy seasonal and signature handcrafted cocktails served over the marble-top bar.
Luxe seating, an outdoor lounge area and accessibility for food trucks make the distillery a fun and unexpected place to wine and dine VIPs.
