Earth Day is coming up on April 22.

 

Many venues are celebrating all week!
Here are a few fun ways to celebrate our beautiful planet!

Kimpton’s Hotel Palomar Dallas and Central 214 restaurant are joining other Kimpton hotels and restaurants nationwide in bringing Earth Day to new heights with the launch of Kimpton EarthCare Week, from April 15 – 22.

Central 214 Patio
Chef Blythe Beck’s Organic Dinner Feature
Available for Kimpton EarthCare Week, April 15-22

 

Diners at Central 214 will enjoy Chef Blythe Beck’s Organic Beef Meatloaf served with all natural bacon, honey and carrot mash, creamed dandelion greens, and a shiitake mushroom gravy. The dish features organic, hormone free, and locally grown products.

 

Our favorite Naughty Chef says, “We’re dedicated to EarthCare every day – from our wine selections and fresh, local ingredients to eco-friendly standards for seafood – so our activities and menu leading up to Earth Day celebrate our long-term commitment to supporting our environment.”
