(Left to right) Honorary Palisades Mayor Eugene Levy, Lulu and Cindy Simon and Home Decorating contest sponsors Joan Sather and Susan Montgomery. The Rotary Club is drawing to see which lucky Palisades couple will win a dinner with the Mayor.
This Saturday at 4:45 p.m., the raffle for the dinner with Honorary Mayor Eugene Levy will be held at The Draycott in Caruso’s Palisades Village.
Palisades Rotary Club members will be in attendance, not only to imbibe in The Draycott’s signature drinks, but to ensure the drawing is fair and impartial. Entertainment will be provided by Claire Nordstrom.
If you are unable to attend, The Draycott reminds residents that from 3 to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, cocktails, beer and by-the-glass wines are 50 percent off.
Nordstrom, a local singer/songwriter sensation, will also return to The Draycott on Monday, November 1, for an evening of musical stylings ranging from classics by Stevie Wonder and Frank Sinatra to more contemporary artists like Norah Jones.
The 24-year-old has performed as a soloist with Andrea Bocelli, and sang on his multi-platinum Christmas album, My Christmas.
Nordstrom also performed with Bocelli at Madison Square Garden and during his brief West Coast tour. Her songwriting has led to licensing songs for four network television series.
She has twice won national honors from the YoungArts competition and has sung the National Anthem at an NFL game in Seattle, and performs at private and charity events in the Los Angeles area.
Next Tuesday, November 2, at 7 p.m., The Draycott will host a special event pairing Brander Vineyard wine with dish pairings from The Draycott’s Chef Josh Mason.
The Brander Vineyard is situated just east of Los Olivos in Santa Ynez, and was purchased by the Brander family in 1974. The vineyard is a gently south-facing position, has excellent soil and a climate ideally suited to growing the grape varieties found in the Bordeaux region of France.
