WM Dinner Affinity Group

Wednesday, November 6, 2019 

This month we are taking a detour from our “only locally owned” dinner venues. Our event for this month will be at the recently opened at Coopers Hawk Winery and Restaurant, 4515 28th St SE, Kentwood, MI 49512

“Founded in 2005 by CEO Tim McEnery, Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurants is built upon the passionate belief that food and wine hold the power to forge lasting connections. At Cooper’s Hawk, we understand that great wines begin in the vineyard. Our winemaker and his team travel the globe looking for the very best grapes and when they are particularly impressed – whether it be in Chile, France, California or Washington – they work with the wine grower to begin crafting our wine. Our winemaker nurtures each wine according to its individual needs to craft the best wine possible. It’s this philosophy that has led to hundreds of national and international awards for our collection. Cooper’s Hawk has created a modern, casual dining experience with warm hospitality in an inviting upscale setting. Our culinary team has designed a contemporary American menu infused with flavors from around the world. Each dish is made fresh in our scratch kitchen, incorporating peak-of-season ingredients, and listed with a bin number to guide you to your selection’s perfect wine match. Our Tasting Rooms embrace the rich experience of Napa, providing guests the opportunity to explore and expand their palates and enrich their wine journey. High end decanters, wine accessories, and gifts, along with our very own gourmet food line, allow guests to live the Cooper’s Hawk lifestyle at home.”

Their menu offers full entrees as well as dinner salads, soups, and sandwiches. And what sounds like a fantastic wine selection! https://chwinery.com/uploads/downloads/Coopers-Hawk-Main.pdf

Dinner runs from 5:30-7:00pm. We’ll meet in the bar at 5:00, for those that can, and then move to dinner at 5:30. Be sure to bring your appetite and plenty of business cards to pass around.

It’s so helpful and important that you register on the InForum website each month so we can have an accurate count and let the restaurant know. And if you find you can’t make it after registering, please let Angie or Kathy know.

Inforum Affinity Groups bring members together around common interests. They are led by members for members and are a great way to broaden your network, socialize, develop deeper business relationships, and simply recharge your batteries. Guests are invited to attend one to two Affinity Group gatherings prior to joining Inforum.

Dinner Affinity Group
Join us for dinner at a West Michigan area restaurant each month to meet and network with other Inforum members and guests. This group gives you the opportunity to try new restaurants all over town, as well as some oldies-but-goodies. Meet us in the bar for drinks & mingling at 5:00 (water and wine both count as drinks!) or pull up a chair in the dining area at 5:30. You'll order off the menu and pay your own check.
