What if we’ve misunderstood luxury?

We tend to treat it like a category—
caviar, truffles, the things we’ve been told are rare.
But what if luxury isn’t a type of food at all?

At Fancy Pants, Chef Matthew Meeker is exploring a different definition—
one rooted in story, sourcing and intention.

Because what makes something truly special 
isn’t what it is…
it’s how it came to be.

On May 6, experience a tasting built around a single idea:
Redefining luxury.
