LUXBAR Menu Pairing
Movie Pick
“We paired the classic comfort foods of LUXBAR with this old school whodunit murder mystery. Everything is easy to eat so you don’t have to take your eyes off the screen.” – Chef Dan Huebschman
Knives Out
Director: Rian Johnson
Acclaimed writer and director Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper, The Last Jedi) pays tribute to mystery mastermind Agatha Christie in Knives Out, a fun, modern-day murder mystery where everyone is a suspect. With an all-star ensemble cast including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon, Don Johnson, Toni Collette, LaKeith Stanfield, Katherine Langford, Jaeden Martell, and Christopher Plummer, Knives Out is a witty and stylish whodunit guaranteed to keep audiences guessing until the very end.
